Hi ,
I have a field name called provno,
PROVNO
123456789
*67890077
*67890642
879645700
098754376
*90875535
Some of the provno starts with *, i need to eliminate those * from the provno.
Output should be ,
123456789
67890077
67890642
879645700
098754376
90875535
Thanks
data x; input PROVNO $10.; cards; 123456789 *67890077 *67890642 879645700 ; run; proc sql; select * from x where provno net '*'; quit;
Ksharp
compress(provno,'*');
In case if i want to remove whole provno that starts with * means ?
Please let me know.
Thanks
Yes i got it.. i have used not equal function as below,
proc sql;
select provno from test
where substr(provno,1,1) <> '*';

data x; input PROVNO $10.; cards; 123456789 *67890077 *67890642 879645700 ; run; proc sql; select * from x where provno net '*'; quit;
