From SAS version 8, you can have 256-character long labels. Maybe migrating your data to a more recent version would be enough.

I given the 60 letters of label to one variable. But sas is giving upto 40 letters of label.<BR /> Thanks in advance.<BR /> <BR /> Regards,<BR /> ravi Wed, 17 Jan 2007 09:08:02 GMT https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Health-and-Life-Sciences/How-to-increase-length-of-vaiable-label/m-p/2102#M128 SSN_Ravi 2007-01-17T09:08:02Z https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Health-and-Life-Sciences/How-to-increase-length-of-vaiable-label/m-p/2103#M129 It seems that you are still dealing with version 6 data.
