I have a SiteNumber column in my Mylib.sheet2 spreadsheet that has a mixed fields of "Site 999", "Site 998", and "999".
I want to remove everything except for the number aspect, such as 999 and 998.
I have tried this, but it gives me syntax error and symbol is not recognized error for the '[0-9]+' part:
PROC SQL;
SELECT substring(sitenumber from '[0-9]+')
FROM Mylib.sheet2;
QUIT;
Thanks
Substitute this for the substring function:
prxchange('s/[^\d]//', -1, sitenumber)
