How to find strings that contain double spaces?

[somebody]

I would like to find rows where the variable NAME has 2 or 3 consecutive spaces in the string. I used 

find(name,'  ');

but it returns all rows. What am I doing wrong?

I suggest you try:

if name ne compbl(name);

Using FIND will locate trailing blanks on strings. SAS character variables are padded with trailing blanks if the text doesn't take up the full variable lengths.

find( strip(name) ,'  ');
