Doing something similar but wondering if it's possible to retain the formatting of the columns that you're concatenating so I can have the make with standard formatting the type remain italic as they are when in their own column? As an example I've used the cars data set to illustrate.
data cars;
set sashelp.cars;
run;
proc freq data=cars;
table make*type/list out=c1;
run;
ods escape char="~";
proc report data=c1 split='^' style=journal;
column make type final count;
define make /display left 'Make' style(column)=[width=10%] ;
define type /left display 'Type' style(column)=[width=10% font_style=italic];
define final /computed left 'Make, ~S={font_style=italic}Type' style(column)=[width=10%] ;
define count/center display "M(SD) ^ or N(%)" style(column)=[width=10%];
compute final /character length=95;
final=cat(trim(make),", ",left(trim(type)));
endcomp;
run;
