Hi there,
I have a data set with duplicate account numbers but unique connect dates, this is the code I wrote...but I keep on getting errors
Data Z_Connect_Data;
set Connect_Data;
format Newest_Connect_Date mmddyy10.;
Newest_Connect_Date = max(Connect_Date);
run;
I need the most recent connect dates.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you
proc sql;
create table z_connect_data as
select
select
account_number,
max(connect_date) as MaxDate
from
connect_data
group by account_number;
quit;
Thanks DBailey,
That worked....kind of.
My result set has Account_Number and Max Date, however, the maxdate is not formated as a date but a number?
proc sql;
create table z_connect_data as
select
account_number,
max(connect_date) as MaxDate format = mmddyy10.
from
connect_data
group by account_number;
quit;
just apply the format you need...presuming that connect_date is a date and not a datetime..
proc sql;
create table z_connect_data as
select
select
account_number,
max(connect_date) format=date9. as MaxDate
from
connect_data
group by account_number;
quit;
Perfect that worked!!!!
Thank you everyone!
