We can't understand your question. 

Please post sample input and output data to illustrate your issue. 

 

EDIT: Here's the SAS resource on combining datasets and all the different ways.

Refer to this visual below which shows SQL code, however the same is possible in datastep merge using in= on both datasets:

data want;
  merge have1 (in=a) have2 (in=b);
  by merge_variables;
  if a and b;
run;

undefined
