how can I merge the datasets keeping both Rate_1M_CD fields as different fields by renaming the my_citimon version as MON_RATE
data work.my_citiday;
set sashelp.citiday;
if '01-JAN-88'd <= date <= '31-OCT-88'd and day(date)='01';
DowComposite=snydjcm;
Rate_1M_CD = dcd1m;
keep date DowComposite Rate_1M_CD;
run;
data work.my_citimon;
set sashelp.citimon;
if '01-MAR-88'd <= date <= '31-DEC-88'd;
format date DATE9.;
Rate_1M_CD = FSPCAP/100;
Common_Stock_Price_Index = FSPCON;
keep date Rate_1M_CD Common_Stock_Price_Index;
run;
One option is to rename the variable in the data step shown.
Replace the items in red, with the items in blue.
data work.my_citimon; set sashelp.citimon; if '01-MAR-88'd <= date <= '31-DEC-88'd; format date DATE9.; Rate_1M_CD = FSPCAP/100;
MON_RATE = FSPCAP/100; Common_Stock_Price_Index = FSPCON; keep date Rate_1M_CD MON_RATE Common_Stock_Price_Index; run;
Another is to use the data set options RENAME to change the name.
data want; merge my_citiday mycitimon (rename = (rate_1m_cd = mon_rate));
