Hello,

I'm new on SAS-Studio. I don't understand why this programme don't work on SAS Studio, labels dosen't work with a proc contents statement (but it works well with SAS local 9.4). Many Thanks.

 

 

proc contents data=world;
Label pop85='population in 1985';
run;

Hi @SASISA 

 

If you want to modify a variable label you can use a proc datasets:

proc datasets lib=work;
	modify world;
	label pop85='population in 1985';
run;

Hope this helps!

 

Best,
