Hi,
I would like to save a value from the MEANS procedure to use in a further datastep.
For example
Proc means data=table1 mean ; var Sales ; run ;
If the output was $200, I would like to save the value to use further along in my code, for example:
Proc print data=table1 ; where Sales LE &Sales_Mean ; run ;
Where Sales_Mean was generated from the proc means procedure.
Thanks for your help.
SOLVED:
using Proc SQL
PROC SQL NOPRINT ;
SELECT MEAN(Sales)
INTO :meanSales
FROM Table1
; QUIT ;
Proc print data=table1 ; where Sales LE &meanSales; run ;
