From: SAS_learner on 2 Dec 2009 12:11 hello Js, I do not know any place online which has exercises but I do know about a book written by Ron cody , SAS workbook and SAS by examples has plenty of problems to work on and that should be great exercise to start with. If you come across let me know. Earlier when I was looking I found couple of them on school web sites (Term assignments and Quiz's ) . Good luck in your search and let me know if you come across something thanks SL On Wed, Dec 2, 2009 at 8:47 AM, js8765 <js8765(a)googlemail.com> wrote: > Dear all, > > I am currently trying to learn SAS and have been studying for a few > hours each day for the last 2 to 3 months.

From: js8765 on 6 Dec 2009 03:53 Thanks SAS_learner and Ron for the help. I found quite a few exercises on college websites as recommended by SL . Just in case anyone else is looking for such things, I got good results with the Google search - site:.edu "write a data step to|that" Other than those results and the books, it's very difficult to find anything else.
