Would like to cap my report at the top X observations. Like if I had 10 students heights and only wanted to out the top 5 tallest.
Any thoughts?
If you sorted your data by descending height then reported on the first 5 rows that would do it.
proc sort data = students;
by descending height;
run;
proc report data = students (obs = 5);
........
Thanks for the reply.
That works, but I'm hoping to feed use a computed report variable to do my obs... I may have to add a few steps to do it, essentially, that way though.
