Label with multiple lines with one line indented in Proc Report

Sarah-R — Sat, 27 Jun 2020 07:44:19 GMT

Proc Report data=FirstNLastN split=' / '

define name / display "First Name / Last Name";

run;

How do I get the label to indent on the second line after the splitting /? As you can see there are multiple lines in this label and the second line is indented.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

First Name |

Last Name |

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi @Sarah-R

Please try this:

ods escapechar="#";
proc report data=firstNlastN split="/";
	define name / display  "First Name  / #{nbspace 6}Last Name";
run;

-> you can specify a different of number of spaces in the brakets: #{nbspace 6}

Best,
