I am trying to also get the agencies that are not 03,06,02,04,05,01,08, and 19 in as Other agencies. I am not sure where to place that when statement in the same code.
I believe the statement you want is OTHERWISE. Like the below.
data first(keep = major_ag ag_abbr first_year)
last(keep = major_ag ag_abbr last_year);
length major_ag $2;
set Data_Rep.c_agency;
major_ag = substr(ag_code,1,2);
select (major_ag);
when ('03') ag_abbr = 'HHS';
when ('06') ag_abbr = 'NSF';
when ('02') ag_abbr = 'DOD';
when ('04') ag_abbr = 'DOE';
when ('05') ag_abbr = 'NASA';
when ('01') ag_abbr = 'USDA';
when ('19') ag_abbr = 'ED';
when ('08') ag_abbr = 'DOC';
otherwise ag_abbr = 'OTHER';
end;
output first;
output last;
run;
