Using two different formats for proc tabulate results

Whitlea — Wed, 07 Feb 2024 17:05:07 GMT

Hi,

Does anyone have any advice on how I can get my proc tabulate to use the formats I assigned in the code? I have tried a few different things and have been unsuccessful. I would like my count column to use format comma10.0. and my cost column to use format dollar12.. Thank you!

data My_data;
 set Data;
 format count comma10.0 cost dollar12.;
 run;

Proc tabulate data=My_data;
class type Year /order=data ;
var cost count;
table type='Type'*Year="SFY",cost="Cost" count="Count" /printmiss
rts=32 ; 
format count comma10.0 cost dollar12.;
run;

You should be able to set the formats in the TABLE statement itself, just use *F=.

Example:

proc tabulate data=sashelp.class;
  class sex;
  var age height ;
  table sex,age*sum*f=10. height*mean*f=5.2 ;
run;
