I would like to convert the code from Base SAS to SQL, if yes what is the procedure

Don’t attempt a line by line conversion. 

Determine what the code does and write from scratch in SQL. Otherwise you’ll have inefficient code.

Lots of questions lately about converting base SAS to SQL. Why? If it works in base SAS, what is the need to convert the code?

 

Anyway, in these threads there is also good advice.
