I am trying to create a data set, with a base record for each year for
a set of 2 ids.

DATA ref;  /* used below to insert a record for every year */
        do id1 = &minid1 to &maxid1;
                do year=1 to &mxyr;
                        do id2=&minid2 to &maxid2;
                                if id2 in(11,12,15,16) then do;count=0;output;end;
                                else delete;
                        end;
                end;
        end;
run;

The problem is, the values for the in() statement are not static, but
variable.  Is there a way to reference a data set instead of a static
list?
