ID	Event	x_tpoint	x_date	x_score	dis_date	y_tpoint	y_score	y_date
1	a	3	14thfeb	4	5thmarch
1	a	3	20thfeb	5	5thmarch
1	b				5thmarch	3	6	1stmarch
2	a	3	1stmarch	5	1stapril
2	b				1stapril	3	4	15thmarch
3	a	3	1st April	6	1stmay
3	a	3	7thapril	7	1stmay

I want to get the following table, please assist?

ID	x_tpoint	x_date1	x_date2	x_score1	x_score2	dis_date	y_tpoint	y_score	y_date
1	3	14thfeb	20thfeb	4	5	5thmarch	3	6	1stmarch
2	3	1stmarch		5		1stapril	3	4	15thmarch
3	3	1stapril	7thapril	6	7	1stmay	3

Here is one way :

data want(rename=(x_tpoint_=x_tpoint));
	array x_date_[3] $ x_date1-	x_date3;
	array x_score_[3] $ x_score1-x_score3;

	x_tpoint_=.;
	do _n_=1 by 1 until(last.id);
		set have;
		by id;

	 	x_date_[_n_]=x_date; 
	 	x_score_[_n_]=x_score; 

		if x_tpoint ^=. then x_tpoint_=x_tpoint;
	end;

keep ID	x_tpoint_	x_date1	x_date2	x_score1	x_score2	dis_date	y_tpoint	y_score	y_date;
run;

Should ask @Nrjn7 what the maximum number of dates or scores will ever appear within a value of ID.

Just because a small shown example only shows 3 as likely there may actually be 5, 10, 15 or some other number.

@ballardw @r_behata That's a really good question. For a given ID, the events are repeated instruments. Meaning, For study ID 1, they could have more than one Event a (in  this example: there's only 2 event a for studyid 1 but there could be more). would the code work if the event "a" or "b" were more for given studyid. for every event they would have dates.

Thank you

@Nrjn7  The code can be slightly modified to adjust to your needs. Have you tried running the code with your actual data to see what happens ?

The sample output you have shown has  fixed columns such as : x_score1,x_score2. If your data has more than 2 events , say 5 or 10 does the output columns needs to change accordingly. If yes, show us some samples.

@r_behata thanks for responding.

Using the code, this is the result I'm currently getting.

id	x_date1	x_datet2	x_score1	x_score2	x_tpoint	dis_date	y_tpoint	y_score	y_date
1	14thfeb	20thfeb	4	5	.	.	3	6	1stmarch
2	1stmarch		5	.	.	.	3	4	15thmarch
3	1stapril	7thapril	6	7	3	.	.	.

So, the columns for score and date are dependent on how many event per study ID there is.

For example, for StudyID 1 he could have 'n' number of event 'a' or 'n' number of event b, (x_tpoint, y_tpoint and dis_date) is always fixed)

so, I have this table

id	event	x_tpoint	x_date	x_score	dis_date	y_tpoint	y_date	y_score
1	a	3	1stjan	4	8
1	a	3	2ndjan	3	8
1	a	3	3rdjan	5	8
1	'n' th a
1	b				8	3	4thjan	6
1	b				8	3	5thjan	7
1	'n' th b

The events are repeated instruments so ID 1 can have 'n' number of a's and b's.

I want the table below:

id	event	x_tpoint	x_date1	x_date2	x_date3	x_date'n'	x_score1	x_score2	x_score3	x_score'n'

I couldn't fit the y_score y_date but the idea is the same.

Really appreciate the help.

I am not quite sure how you want these rows to be represented in your output. They seem to be having different dates unlike the first sample you have shown.

1	b				8	3	4thjan	6
1	b				8	3	5thjan	7

Would you like the  y_score, y_date to be converted as Y_Score1,Y_Score2...YScoren and Y_date1,Y_Date2...Y_Daten ?
