Proc lifetest

Does anyone know how to modify the below proc lifetest function to get the result that is in the attached spreadsheet in tab 'used to get'? When I run the below I am getting a result that is what is in 'get now' tab.

Paul

proc lifetest data=issuejoinedNNNA outsurv=issuejoinedNNNAout ;

ods select Quartiles;

ods output Quartiles=annual;

time dur_filing_issuejoin*censor_filing_issue(1);

strata cnty_name filingYear;

run;

The first looks like the output from quartiles, ie annual and the second from outsurv, ie issuejoinedNNNAout.

What version of SAS are you on?

I am using Enterprise Guide 5.1. Based on your response, what I would like to do is to save the output from lifetest using quartiles and from Proc Means in a data set. Neither of these two functions has an 'out' option. Does anyone know how to do this?

Also, in Enterprise Guide, there is a tab called 'Output Data' that appears when you run something (similar to the below). How do I export the contents of 'Output Data' to a data set?

Paul

proc lifetest data=issuejoinedNNNA;

ods select Quartiles;

ods output Quartiles=annual;

time dur_filing_issuejoin*censor_filing_issue(1);

strata cnty_name filingYear;

run;

Both have output options in BASE SAS so you would be able to get it via code. When you run the code below and then close the dialogs/outputs, do you see the table called annual?
