Is this to create a new dataset that is a subset or to feed into a procedure?

A new dataset cold be

Data want;

   set have;

   if shrcd in (10,11) and exchcd in (1,2,3);

run;

if the variables are character then the values should be in quotes : in ('10','11')

 

You can use a data seth option where to feed records with selected values

 

proc print data=have (where=(shrcd in (10,11) and exchcd in (1,2,3)));

run;
