Answer / christeena
this happens in many to many merge..if we do not have a key
variable to identify that which observation from one data
set to be matched with which observation in the other data
set, a note will appear in the log as 'merge with repeat
set of by values'..So to get rid of this note find a unique
key variable so that observations from the data sets can be
correctly matched..

Approximately what date is represented by the SAS date value of 730?
There is a field containing a date. It needs to be displayed in the format “ddmonyy” if it’s before 1975,”dd mon ccyy” if it’s after 1985, and as ‘disco years’ if its between 1975 and 1985. How would you accomplish this in data step code? Using only PROC FORMAT.
