how to export select results to an excel file

[Angi]

Hi,

I have data for 2 different years - 2008 and 2016 - on whether people living in a particular community use different substances such as alcohol, tobacco etc (yes/no variable coded as 0=No, 1=Yes).

Have (raw data):

data WORK.RAW_DATA(label='raw_data dataset written by Stat/Transfer Ver. 11.2.2106.0521       ');
  infile datalines dsd truncover;
  input Community_name:$1. Year:32. Alcohol_use:32. Tobacco_use:32. Marijuana_use:32.;
datalines4;

I am using chi-square to analyze the data for each community using the following code in SAS 9.4:

proc freq data=raw_data;

table year * alcohol_use year*tobacco_use year*marijuana_use/ nopercent nocolumn chisq;

run;

The results are attached.

I am interested in the freq count and row percentages for the yes responses coded "1" in 2008 and 2016, and predicted probability of chi-square value (highlighted in the resutls). Is there a way to export just the highlighted results to an excel file instead of having to manually enter the numbers or copy/paste for all the outcomes?

Want (summary statistics):

Outcome	2008count	2008percent	2016count	2016percent	prob
Alcohol_use	12	57.14	10	40.00	0.2463
Tobacco_use	14	66.67	12	48.00	0.2033
Marijuana_use	15	71.43	11	44.00	0.0616

Any suggestions?

Thank you.

Please provide example data in the form of a datastep if you would like example code. If you don't know how to create such a datastep Instructions here: https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Communities-Library/How-to-create-a-data-step-version-of-your-dat... will show how to turn an existing SAS data set into data step code that can be pasted into a forum code box using the {i} icon or attached as text to show exactly what you have and that we can test code against.

Thank you for your suggestion! I have updated my original post with sample data in the form of a datastep.

There are two parts to your question.

First, how to create a dataset that contains what you want. The following will work with your example data:

proc freq data=raw_data;
  table year * alcohol_use year*tobacco_use year*marijuana_use/ nopercent nocol chisq;
  ods output CrossTabFreqs=freq;
  ods output ChiSq=chi;
run;

data want (keep=outcome year count: percent:);
  set freq (where=(_TYPE_ eq '11' and
     (alcohol_use eq 1 or tobacco_use eq 1 or marijuana_use eq 1) and
     year in (2008,2016)));
  length outcome $12;
  retain count2008 percent2008;
  outcome=substr(table,14);
  if year eq 2008 then do;
    count2008=frequency;
    percent2008=rowpercent;
  end;
  else do;
    count2016=frequency;
    percent2016=rowpercent;
    output;
  end;
run;

data want (drop=statistic);
  set want;
  set chi (where=(statistic eq 'Chi-Square')
    keep=statistic prob);
run;

You can use a number of ways to get that into excel, e.g., proc export.
