left join on multiple conditions

[ZRick]

Why following doesn't work? how do I fix it?

I want to left join first on p_id, then on instid. but you see the last row in h dataset in the resultant data set doesn't exist, which is not correct.

data t;

input instid p_id wt;

cards;

1 1 .5

1 2 .3

;

data h;

input instid p_id pv;

cards;

1 1 3

1 2 4

1 3 10

;

proc sql;

create table fnl as

select h.*, t.wt from t left join h on t.instid = h.instid and t.p_id = h.p_id

order by instid, p_id;

quit;

That's the way it should be. If you want all lines from h then you should ask for a right join instead. - PG
