Hi,

 

I am trying to see how changing the width of a column in PROC print reflects in the output(window, HTML and PDF). I am using the SAS University Edition.

 

Should not specifying width=2 should limit the column width as 2 ? Against the column width specified as 2 , the column name is written as "customer region" which is greater than column width specified as 2.

 

Below is the code:

HTML output downloded:

PDF output downloaded:

No. width=2 is only for LISTING ,not HTML destination.

...............
define region/group style={cellwidth=1 cm};

HI, 1 CM is rather small. If you want to guarantee that 'customer' is on one line and 'region' is on the next line, then use the split character to control the column label:
define region / group 'Customer*Region'
style(column)={cellwidth=2in};

Pay attention, in all your outputs the customer region is leading zeros suppressed, there fore you got the region as one digit.

If you meant by width=2 to get the region as two digits, you should define its format as z2.
