Hi,
While using append procedure u may miss the variables that are not
present in the base dataset.
But while using 'set a b;' stmt u can hold all the variables that are
present in both the datasets.
data a;
s = 1;
r = 2;
run;
data b;
s= 3;
t = 4;
run;
/********* Using Append Procedure************/
proc append base = a data = b force;
run;
proc print data = a;
run;
/*********** Using datastep ***********/
data a;
set a b;
run;
proc print data = a;
run;
Thanks,
Sasikumar,
Quartesian.
