Hi,
I got a code from a co-worker of mine where he creates a sas dataset with some statistics and then create a PDF file with it. The problem is the PDF is only displaying 5 decimal places(some times rounds the fifth decimal).
Just wondering , if it is possible to display the decimal part as is without rounding. Please help.
Here is the sample code:
data tt;
input id id2;
datalines;
0.4567682345678 234
;run;
data tt1;
set tt;
kd=id * (1-id) ;
run;
%let test_pdf = C:\Test1.pdf;
ods listing close;
ods pdf file="&test_pdf";
proc print data=tt1 noobs;
title "&Test PDF";
run;
ods pdf close;
ods listing;
In the PDF the value of KD is displayed as 0.24813 instead of 0.2481310145. Please share your thoughts.
Thanks.
Hi,
I am not sure this is an ODS issue. Have you tried a FORMAT statement? something like:
format id 15.12;
It may be that you just need to explicitly control the number of decimal places with a format.
