Hey, This code runs, but I wish to make sure it is correct because the "or" does not appears in "blue".

 

data EDcomb2;
set EDComb1;
if DD1=1 or DD2=1 or DD3=1 or DD4=1 or DD5=1 or DD6=1 or DD7=1 then DD=1; else DD=0;
run;

if you are checking to see if at least one of the values is eq to 1 then, yes, the code works correctly.

Tell us what it is supposed to do, and we can venture an opinion about whether it is correct or not.

Syntax highlighting makes the or blue in my SAS EG editor.

 

Should also other SAS language elements like data not appear in blue then make sure that you don't have something like an unbalanced quotation mark higher up in your code.
