Is it possible to change the character for a missing value?  I am outputting a table of data with PROC REPORT, and my columns are numeric.  When the report is generated and there is a missing value, it displays a ".", which I don't want.  Is it possible to get SAS to display an empty cell without converting everything to character variables?

I figured there would be a simple fix; I just wasn't sure where it was.  Thanks!
