In the COLUMN statement, FLAG_X must appear before (to the left of) X_RATE.

Hi:

And, if you absolutely need the variable FLAG_X listed as the last item on the report row, then you can use it multiple times on the report. Use it once to the left of X_RATE for highlighting and then use it again with an alias name in the column statement so it will appear in the position you want. In the code below, AGE is used to highlight the SEX column, but it also appears as the last variable on the report row because of using the construction AGE=SHOWLAST in the COLUMN statement to place the alias item at the end of the row.
