SAS: Difference between current_date and today funtions
TODAY() is a base SAS function and works in any of the "normal" SAS contexts (including PROC SQL). CURRENT_DATE() is a FedSQL function. FedSQL is new as of 9.4 and is basically a more-compatible version of SQL that includes data types found in other databases (like Hadoop, in particular) for...
SAS Macro and arrays for tables names
There's a handful of ways to deal with this. Search for "Data driven programming", for example. I'll show two: my preferred one, and the one a lot of people would suggest. First, the popular solution would be to do a macro loop. Properly, I would write a macro with min...

Use code in a file as content of a SAS macro variable
EDIT-new answer that actually works: You could read your entire query into a macro variable through a data step, but you'd be limited to 32,767 total characters in the query, as that is the most a character variable would hold. I'd suggest using a data step to read your query...

You can use the scan function to get the desired result. By altering the example you have in the link to fit your example: data one; input id name :$10. age PG_86xt AG_86xt IG_86xt; datalines; 1 George 10 85 90 89 2 Mary 11 99 98 91 3 John 12...
What's wrong with these macro parameters?
Macro variables do not use quotations. %macro test(var); %if &var = %str(Sub Prime) %then %do; %let var2 = Sub_Prime; %put &=var2; %end; %mend; %test(Sub%str( )Prime); You'd be better off using %str around the whole thing, though, rather than inserting the %str in just the space. %test(%str(Sub Prime)); ...

An efficient way to Copying values in subsequent records - SAS
You can retain the non-missing value and apply it to any missing values, e.g. data want ; set have ; length last $10. ; retain last '' ; if not missing(PARENT) then last = PARENT ; else PARENT = last ; drop last ; run ; ...
Extract ID's separated by dashes from text string
Another different approach to get a multi-delimiter-containing word is to use call scan. It will tell you the position (and length, which we ignore) of the nth word (and can be forwards OR backwards, so this gives you some ability to search in the middle of the string). Implemented for...

How to find percentage values of a column in sas?
You could sum up the counts for an overall total and put it into a macro variable: proc sql ; select sum(d)+sum(i)+sum(s) into :N from input ;quit ; You can then reference this in your code: data out.calculate_age; set out.calculate_age ; if age = "" then age = "All"; if...

How to get array size during compile time?
To my knowledge you cannot dynamically set the size of the array at the compile time. One possibility to get this done is to use proc contents and proc sql to figure out how many threshold parameters there are in the parameters data set and then pass that information to...
How to match data in SAS
You could do this through SQL by merging your prices onto your dataset by var1/var2: proc sql ; create table output as select a.var1, a.var2, b.price from input a left join (select distinct var2, price from input where not missing(var2)) as b on (a.var1=b.var2 or a.var2=b.var2) ;quit ; ...
how to calculate weighted average but exclude the object itself using SAS
This can be done with a bit of fancy algebra. It's not something that's built-in, though. Basically: Construct a "total" market return Construct a stock by stock return (so just return of A) Subtract out the portion that A contributes to total. Thanks to the simple math that generates these...
Importing single value from a CSV file not working in SAS
CALL EXECUTE has tricky timing issues. When it invokes a macro, if that macro generates macro variables from data set variables, it's a good idea to wrap the macro call in %NRSTR(). That way call execute generates the macro call, but doesn't actually execute the macro. So try changing your...

how to use _infile_ in SAS to delete lines in a hierarchical prog

SAS proc sql - how to read in log of variable but retain the variable's label
As far as I know, there is not a way of persisting the variable label automatically in proc sql. Unfortunately, you don't have access to the vlabel etc. functions, and even if you did the timing would be wrong to use them. In addition to defining the label manually as...

Date values in SAS (when saved correctly) are stored as an integer, namely the integer number of days since 1/1/1960. So today is 20230, for example. Then formats tell SAS what it should look like when printed neatly; and informats tell SAS how to translate neatly printed dates to this...

The macro %IF statement implicitly calls the %EVAL() function. %EVAL() understands integers (whether positive or negative), but not decimal values.
