It is rare that a single data set or table will hold all the data needed to answer the questions facing the business. People usually need to match data from multiple sources to assemble the meaningful intelligence required for the SAS experts to deliver to the business. Indeed, SAS provides substantial capability for the matching of data, but all too often an inefficient or inaccurate method can be employed leading to incomplete or incorrect results. This paper explores some data and code the correct syntax to provide the results needed. The paper deals with the data step and the process of bringing in multiple data sources.
