If you look closely at your "need" you will see that decimals between the first and second line do not align and the brackets don't either.</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>If the goal is to align things then have 3 separate variables/values that can have style elements attached for possible alignment.</P> Tue, 18 Aug 2020 17:37:25 GMT https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Programming/How-to-align-decimal-places-and-add-blanks/m-p/677567#M204397 ballardw 2020-08-18T17:37:25Z
