Hello team,

I have 6 tables that they have same variable names:

MembrID Name diagcode1 diagcode2;

I want to append these table like union query in Microsoft Access.

-How can I get there if I want to create a loop and goes through the name of the tables? The tables share same libname.

 

Respectfully,

Blue Blue

And if the names of the data sets are actually "nice" enough to use lists:

data want;
  set MyLib.have1 - MyLib.have6;
run;

Or

data want;
  set MyLib.have: ;
run;

SASKiwi,
Does this take care of stacking data on top of each other?
Does this return all duplicated observations?

It stacks all of the data including duplicate observations.
