Formatting 2X2 Crosstabulation

Zachary — Mon, 29 Dec 2014 15:26:55 GMT

Looking for a way to format the following output so that the column percents show up with zero decimal places:

proc freq data = CombineScoredTemp;

tables _node_ * Bin_SLR

/nopercent norow nofreq;

run;

Of course I could copy & paste it into Excel. Then format it. Then I would want more decimal places.

Also, is there a way to output these column percents so that a % shows up with the numbers?

Thank you very much in advance.

Consider using Proc TABULATE insted which gives you many more formating options than Proc FREQ.

Compare the reports produced by the following two sample codes:

1. Using Proc FREQ:

proc freq data=sashelp.class;

tables age*sex / nopercent norow nofreq;

run;

2. Using Proc FORMAT ans Proc TABULATE:

proc format;

picture pctfmt low-high='009.99 %';

run;

proc tabulate data=sashelp.class format=10.;

class age sex;

table age all , sex*colpctn*F=pctfmt10.;

keylabel all='Total' colpctn='Col Pct';

run;
