In
this set of tasks, you can create a new data set that contains all
the observations from both the Mylib.Vaerextsyns and Mylib.Vaer_abbrev
data sets, and examine the results using the merged synonym data set.
Complete the following steps:
-
Select
the
Utility tab and drag a SAS Code node
into the diagram workspace. Connect the SAS Code — TMSPELL
node to the new SAS Code node. Right-click the new SAS Code node,
select
Rename, and type
SAS Code — Merge SL, where “SL”
stands for “Synonym List,” in the Node Name box. Click
OK.
-
Select
the SAS Code — Merge SL node and click the
button for the
Code Editor property. The Code Editor opens.
-
Enter
the following code in the Code Editor:
data mylib.vaerextsyns_new;
set mylib.vaerextsyns mylib.vaer_abbrev;
run;
This code
merges the resulting synonyms data set from the first SAS Code —
TMSPELL node with the abbreviations data set.
-
Click
the
button to save changes. Close the Code Editor window.

Right-click
the SAS Code — Merge SL node, and select

Right-click
the Text Miner — Symptom Text node and select

configured for the Text Miner — Symptom Text node. Right-click
the new Text Miner node, and select
Rename. Type
Text Miner — CST, where “CST” stands for “Cleaned Symptom Text”,
in the Node Name box. Click
