I am new to Jump Scripting Language  .  How do I delete rows depending on the value in the column . 

eg . column name

 DAT

DAT6

DAT6

DAT6

DAT8

DAT9

So in my column DAT i want to keep only DAT6 and delete the other rows DAT8 and DAT9

[Bhushan]

any other supporting variable which can trigger  DAT6 Obsn ? whatever data you have provided based on that i can say only one thing 

data want;

set have ;

If _n_=1 ;

run;

data aa;
input dat $;
datalines;
DAT6
DAT6
DAT6
DAT6
DAT8
DAT7
;
proc sql;
create table want as
select distinct dat from aa
where Dat contains ("6");
quit;

Use if condition like any other language.

DATA want;

SET have;

if DAT ^="DAT6" then DELETE ;

RUN;

@abhra07 JSL is part of JMP isn't it? Not part of SAS Base? If you're using JMP this is not the correct forum. 

If JSL is supported within SAS now, feel free to correct me and disregard this entire message 🙂
