Hello SAS users,
I want to create a dataset that shows three years before and two years after a certain year for each of the observations in my sample. Also there are some overlapped years in newly created column, and I need to keep all overlap years presented separately.
Data have:
| Company | Year |
| A | 2000 |
| A | 2001 |
| B | 1998 |
Data want:
| Company | Year | New |
| A | 1997 | |
| A | 1998 | |
| A | 1999 | |
| A | 2000 | 2000 |
| A | 2001 | |
| A | 2002 | |
| A | 1998 | |
| A | 1999 | |
| A | 2000 | |
| A | 2001 | 2001 |
| A | 2002 | |
| A | 2003 | |
| B | 1995 | |
| B | 1996 | |
| B | 1997 | |
| B | 1998 | 1998 |
| B | 1999 | |
| B | 2000 |
Thank you so much in advance!

data want(rename=(year=_year));
set have;
do new = _year-3 to _year +2;
if new = _year
then year = _year;
else call missing(year);
