How to Copy One record to Next record

[vThanu]

I have only 1 record in my dataset and I want to copy that record and get the same in the second record.

for example

data have;

x="Micro soft"

run;

expected output

       x

Micro soft

Micro Soft 

Thanks in advance

Try:

data want;
Set have;
output;
output;
run;

I'm not sure if this meets your actual needs, but you can control how many times an observation is written to your data set with the Output Statement like this.

data have;
x="Micro soft";
output;
output;
run;

proc print data=have;
run;

apart from this do we have any other options....
like do look
do i = 1 to 2 (what ever the no we want)...

[PeterClemmensen]

Yes, this gives you the same

data have;
x="Micro soft";
do i=1 to 2;
   output;
end;
run;

proc print data=have;
run;
