Comments: cc: "Keith W. Larson" <keith_w_larson@YAHOO.COM>

Keith W. Larson" asked how to create dummy records for a screening of "The Birds" or something like that.

Do this:

data littlebirdies;
  catpures=.;
  do species="YWAR","AUWA","PUFI","SWTH";
  do station="CABN","ODES";
  do year=1997,1998,1999,2000;
    output;
  end;
  end;
  end;

data bigbirdies;
  merge littlebirdies test;
  by species station test;
run;

I have one last suggestion.
  rename catpures=captures;
