- A special thanks to Howard Schreier for suggesting an outer join with Proc SQL.
- The following code solved my problem:
-
- proc sql;
- create table tot as
- select *
- from beh full join inm
- on beh.pond=inm.pond;
-
- Thanks also to Ben Conner, Tom Abernathy and Kernon Gibes for suggesting SQL.
- As one who learned SAS before the advent of Proc SQL, I keep trying to do
- everything with data steps, even with SQL is more appropriate because of the
- radical differences in syntax. I have now resolved to learn Proc SQL.
