Create a new variable from combining separate variables

[achen]

My data:

ID  number treatment 

1   14          Placebo

2    20         Placebo

3    10         Active

4     15        Active

Want a variable that looks like "number (treatment)".  For example, 14 (Placebo), 20 (Placebo), 10 (Active), 15 (Active).  This will be added to the dataset above (4th column).

[Astounding]

Try:

data want;
set have;
newvar = catt(number, " (", treatment, ")" ;
run;

Thank you!  Works great.  The code is missing ), but it was an easy fix.
