Hi guys,
Please help take below code out of macro.
I have to select certain disease cases from the data &file&year if found in the list &steps. Macros defined in the code below. I don't need double logics in macro as is now because I have a physical file prepped to replace &file&year now. I commented out the parts that I thought would not need. But it did not work out. I really have to get it out tonight. Crossing my fingers if anybody there for help.
data icd(drop=diag rename=x=icd); set icd;
format x $10.;
diag=compress(diag,'.');
diag_original=diag;
x="[*]"||diag;
run;
proc sql noprint;
select icd
into :steps separated by '|'
from icd;
quit;
%put &steps;
options compress=yes;
%let x=:Code_1 - :Code_24;
/*****************************************************************************************************************/;
libname red "C:\;
%macro loop(case);
%global case1;
%let case1=&case;
%if &case=shape %then %let condition = &steps;
proc datasets noprint;
delete all_&type._other;
run;
/*%do year = 2014 %to 2017; */
/*%if &year >= 2016 %then */
/* %do; */
/* libname red "C:...";*/
/* %if &type=Int %then %let file=&type.;*/
/* %else;*/
/* %if &type=Out %then %let file=&type._direct;*/
/* %end; */
data momentary(compress=yes); set red.&file&year(where=(patient_county_code in (58,33,37)));
icd_code = catx('*','*',Diag_Code, of Code:);
if prxmatch("m/&condition/oi",icd_code) > 0;
source="In";
run;
proc append base=all_&type._other(compress=yes) data=momentary force;
run;
%end;
%mend loop;
/*%let type=Int;/*
%loop(shape);
/*%let type=Out;/
%loop(shape);*
you could pull the code from macro i.e., you could get the resolved code into the sas file with the following code. You should run the code with a macro call as below and a sample.sas file will be created in the path you specified.
filename mprint '~path/sample.sas';
options mfile mprint;
%loop(defects);
"But it did not work out." is awful vague.
Are there errors in the log?: Post the code and log in a code box opened with the {i} to maintain formatting of error messages.
No output? Post any log in a code box.
Unexpected output? Provide input data in the form of a dataset, the actual results and the expected results. Data should be in the form of a data step. Instructions here: https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Communities-Library/How-to-create-a-data-step-version-of-your-dat... will show how to turn an existing SAS data set into data step code that can be pasted into a forum code box using the {i} icon or attached as text to show exactly what you have and that we can test code against.
With macros run the code with Options Mprint Symbolgen Mlogic; before posting the log.
