Hi,

Again, I am not providing code as this is company IP.  This is a large area to explore.  What do you want in the DS domain, do you need supplementary domains, do you need define.xml, what about standards (eCRF/Domains) etc.  Have you a spec to work to.  Various other questions.

I believe this forum is for particular questions, not training or contract work.

Please refer to the SAS training - SAS Tutorials | SAS Training, and CDISC information - http://www.cdisc.org/sdtm

It is free, and they provide and Implementation guide plus all the documentation necessary.

Here is one brief overview: http://www2.sas.com/proceedings/forum2008/207-2008.pdf

Note however that in my opinion this kind of mapping is moving away from coding and becoming metadata driven.

Its a good idea to put some test data and required output, just helps to understand the issue.  You can get min/max values in several different ways:

data test;     

     a=3; output;

     a=6; output;

     a=1; output;

run;

proc sql;

     create table WANT as

     select     MIN(A) as MIN_A,

                    MAX(A) as MAX_A

     from        TEST;

quit;

proc means data=test;

     var a;

     output out=want min=min max=max;

run;

These are just a couple of ways.  You can then concatenate as b=strip(put(min,best.))||" - "||strip(put(max,best.));
