Do you mean using proc compare ?

 

Let have:

data A with 

       ID   VAR1

        1     25

        2     33

 

data B with

       ID  VAR1

        2     20

        3     50

 

Without ID statement comparison will be first row of A with first row of B etc.

With ID statement caomparison will be

             A ID=1 with no parallel in B

             A ID=2 with B  ID=2     etc.
