Hi,
suppose that I have the following table:
date | stock | price |
21-Jan-10 | A | 1 |
22-Jan-10 | A | 3 |
21-Jan-10 | B | 10 |
22-Jan-10 | B | 15 |
when I do the following code:
proc sort data=have;
by date;
run;
proc transpose data=have out=want ;
by date;
run;
I ge the result:
date | _NAME_ | _LABEL_ | COL1 | COL2 |
21/01/2010 | price | price | 1 | 10 |
22/01/2010 | price | price | 3 | 15 |
But the names of the stocks (A and B) appear as COL1 and COL2 - is it possible to have the real names of the stocks?
Thank you!

That's probably exactly what you are asking for.
