Proc Report Vertical alignment of text

Sarah-R — Fri, 22 May 2020 03:42:01 GMT

What Proc Report code do I need to be able to center vertically align text, changing it from top to center alignment? Right now, in Proc Report, the default vertical alignment is top.

Thank you.

Hi @Sarah-R

You can use a style option in the PROC REPORT statement:

proc report data=/*your data*/ style(/*location*/)={verticalalign=middle};

.. where 'location' could be header, column, data, ...

For example, if you want to align columns headers, you can put : style(header)={verticalalign=middle}

Best,

Try:

style={ vjust=m } ;
style={ vjust=c } ;

Both these methods work.

Thank you @ed_sas_member!

Thank you @Ksharp!

An alternative is height=.22in.

For example: style(column)={height=.22in}

or larger if the vertical alignment is not working, particularly in ods output.
