If this is external data when it is imported or read into a SAS data set it will be 0. The number of 0 decimals shown will depend on the display format used or defaulting, likely best4. or similar.</P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 21 Aug 2013 23:24:39 GMT https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Procedures/converting-0-00-to-0-00/m-p/118410#M32688 ballardw 2013-08-21T23:24:39Z
