hello sir, when am using else if statement along with length function, am getting two equal to symbols(==) and text cursor jumping back.
data dt1;
x='ukunk';
if length(x)=5 then y = 'correct';
else if length(x)= 3 then y ='incorrect';
run;
and when am using if statement along with substr function am getting two letters (kk,uu,dd) and text cursor jumping back.
data dt2;
x='ukunk';
if substr(x,1,5)='ukunk' then y = 'correct';
run;
am getting issues in these to programs, please correct me.
> text cursor jumping back

What editor is that: SAS desktop (DMS)? EG? SAS Studio?
