Hi, I have a dataset that looks like this:

 

ID    TRT   VID    OUTCOME

1       0        1             1

1       0        2             0

1       0        1             1

1       0        2             0

2       1        1             1

2       1        2             1

 

I would like my final dataset to look like this:

 

ID    TRT   VID    OUTCOME

1       0        1             1

2       1        1             1

 

 

I would like to only have unique ID numbers for when outcome=1 in a separate dataset, so that I can then run analyses on those ID numbers. Thank you!

If you don't need the other variables at all easiest may be:

Proc sql;
    create table idonly as
    select distinct id
    from yourdatasetname;
quit;
