Thank you for all the responses. This macro was written by previous co-workers and I am trying to learn how the macro works. I know how to get the results without using this macro. But I want to figure out why it is not working. I have modified the macro using different extention, so the output datasets will not be overwriting the previous results. I still do not get the correct results. I know it is related to the way YEAR2, YEAR3, YEAR4 are defined, but I don't know how to revise that. Here is the sas log adn a screenshot of output file
