Answer / rauthu

Yes, WHERE and HAVING can be used in single program. HAVING must be after GROUP by clause.
Example:
proc sql;
select make, model, avg(msrp) as avgmsrp, msrp
from sashelp.cars
where make ='Honda'
group by model
having avgmsrp < 100000;
quit;

Answer / a.k.naidu

Having clause can be used only with 'group by'. Difference between 'where' and 'having' is that former works on variable level and latter works on observation level. 'having' works like second where condition on "grouped data"
