This is my data:

PS           Lat           Long        Slot       Dist

abc	75.8233	26.2454	1	0.00
abc	75.4785	26.4589	1	38939.03
abc	75.5495	26.4679	1	31174.08
abc	75.4875	26.8997	2	0.00
abc	75.5649	26.7268	2	9896.03
abc	75.5666	26.8647	2	8883.29
xyz	75.4875	26.3842	1	0.00
xyz	75.4937	26.5877	1	5735.38
xyz	75.8473	26.3971	1	40164.19
xyz	75.7861	26.6884	2	0.00

Now I want to copy those values which have dist less than 10000 to a new dataset and also delete these values from the original dataset,

So please suggest me some solution,

Thnx in advance

Something like this?

data have;
input PS$ lat long slot Dist;
datalines;
abc 75.8233 26.2454 1 0.00 
abc 75.4785 26.4589 1 38939.03 
abc 75.5495 26.4679 1 31174.08 
abc 75.4875 26.8997 2 0.00 
abc 75.5649 26.7268 2 9896.03 
abc 75.5666 26.8647 2 8883.29 
xyz 75.4875 26.3842 1 0.00 
xyz 75.4937 26.5877 1 5735.38 
xyz 75.8473 26.3971 1 40164.19 
xyz 75.7861 26.6884 2 0.00
;

data have less_than_10000;
	set have;
	if dist < 10000 then output less_than_10000;
	else output have;
run;

[Himanshu007]

Exactly, thnx a lot

[Himanshu007]

I also want to add a new column named XYZ and give value 1 in the new dataset and -100 in the previous dataset,
Plz suggest me some solution
Thnx in advance

[Himanshu007]

It works,
Thnx a lot

[Himanshu007]

If u could please suggest me as to how to append instead of output at this statement
output less_than_10000;
@PeterClemmensen

[PeterClemmensen]

Here is the code with the append procedure from the deleted thread @Himanshu007

data Dataset_1;
input PS$ lat long slot Dist xyz;
datalines;
abc 75.8233 26.2454 1 0 2 
abc 75.4875 26.8997 2 0 2 
xyz 75.4875 26.3842 1 0 2 
xyz 75.7861 26.6884 2 0 2 
;

data Dataset_2;
input PS$ lat long slot Dist xyz;
datalines;
abc 75.4785 26.4589 1 0.00 -100 
abc 75.5495 26.4679 1 7929.25 -100 
abc 75.5649 26.7268 2 0.00 -100 
abc 75.5666 26.8647 2 3843.27 -100 
xyz 75.4937 26.5877 1 0.00 -100 
xyz 75.8473 26.3971 1 39820.47 -100 
;

proc append base = Dataset_1 data = Dataset_2;
	where Dist < 5000;
run;

Dont know why it is deleted 🙂

Hi draycut, Himanshu007,

The other thread got caught in the spam filter. I've "released" so it's now on the community but I'm going to delete because the solution is on this thread.

Best,

Anna

Great, @AnnaBrown, have a nice day
