Hi,
I want to write a code for the following listing using RWI:
Group Name Age Sex
grp1 n1 a1 s1
n2 a2 s2
n3 a3 s3
grp2 n4 a4 s4
n5 a5 s5
I am getting the output, however, the grp variable is repeating for all observations, whereas I want it only for the first observation in the group.
Hi,
Have you tried BY group processing... so that your row for every obs would be something like this:
** row for every obs;
obj.row_start();
if first.byvar then obj.format_cell(data: byvar );
else obj.format_cell(text: " ");
obj.format_cell(data: var2);
obj.format_cell(data: var3);
. . . more code for more variables . . .
obj.format_cell(data: var??);
obj.row_end();
You would need to make sure that the data was in order and you had a BY statement in your DATA step program.
