Copying Data Set
Copying a data set is a very common SAS programming task. It can be done easily by using the SET statement.
From our previous example, we have created a data set called TEST.
Now, we will copy this data set into a new data set called TEST2:

Data Test2;
Set Test;
Run;
TEST2 will contain exactly the same data as TEST.
