Huh?

Are you asking how to find out how many observations are in your datasets?

proc sql ;
create tables want as
select libname,memname,nobs from dictionary.tables
  where libname='WORK'
;
quit;

proc print;
run;

run;

PROC SQL noprint;
 create table work.wanted as
 select memname , nobs 
 from dictionary.tables
 where LIBNAME='WORK' and memname in ('TEST1','TEST2') and memtype='DATA';
