Hello, 

I can't seem to get the labels to show up in my proc print. Here is my code and the output I'm receiving.

 

 

title1 "Subjects Who Died from Heart Failure";
proc print data=hypanl.test;
var wtlb sbp bmi;
label 
SSN = 'Soc Sec Number'
WtLb = 'Subject Weight'
SBP = 'Systolic Blood Pressure';
ID SSN;
run;

You need to specify the LABEL option in the PRINT statement.

 

proc print data=hypanl.test LABEL;

Hello, 

 Try putting the label on your Proc Print statement. You can also try using this method using the code below. 

I hope this helps!

 

PROC PRINT DATA=dataname

         SPLIT= "*";

         WHERE CODCd =2;

         ID SSN;

         VAR WtLb  BMI  SBP;

         LABEL     SSN     =                'Soc Sec*Number'

                         WtLb    =                'Subject Weight'

                          BMI     =                'Body Mass Index'

                          SBP    =                'Systolic Blood Pressure';

RUN;

Hello!

 

Use a label statement to specify the column headers. You want to include a SPLIT = '*' statement to tell SAS where to split, and the split is where the * is. Then make sure to include * in your label statements where you want the label to move to a new line.

Hello,

 

I had the similar issue at the beginning and I fixed it with the following code. I used NOOBS instead of ID statement but I am pretty sure it should do the same thing. 

I added SPLIT statement to make sure that look the same as the homework requirements.
