Answer / sireesha
Its better to avoid hardcoding as
--it overrides the database controls in clinical data
management.
----data often change in a trial over time, and the
hardcode that is written today may not be valid in the
future.

i think we can hard code when we are in need of producing
the report in urgent requirement and if we are not going to
use the code again.

Answer / murray
To a certain extent I agree with #2. Sometimes time can be
wasted developing the most efficient and reusable code if
the task at hand can be completed with simple hardcoding,
and is unlikely to be needed in future.
It is, however always best to avoid hardcoding.

How many versions came upto now in SAS?
I need help in merging two different datasets. I am merging by date and I want to propagate observations from one dataset to the corresponding dates. One dataset has a unique date for each day of the month, while the other dataset has same date for different patient visits. For example I want to spread an observation on the 31DEC2008 from one dataset to several observations with the same date on a second dataset for all the patients who visited on that date. I have tried to merge the two and the result is not what I wanted. Instead I get a dataset whereby all the dates have missing values where observations from the first datset should have spread.
