Hi:
When I make some fake data and run a version of your code, the numeric variables are right justified by default (see #1) and even with STYLE overrides added, the numeric variables are still right justified (see #2).
The only thing I noted was that the STYLE= override in your original code did not have the area in parentheses -- for PROC REPORT the form of the style overrride is generally:
[pre]
style(header)={....}
style(column)={....}
[/pre]
while for PROC TABULATE, the syntax is:
[pre]
style={....} or
*{s={....}} (in a TABLE statement)
[/pre]
Sometimes you can use the syntax without an area with REPORT and get OK results. But it's better to use the correct syntax so REPORT knows exactly which report element you want to change -- since the DEFINE statement could "touch" either the header cell or the data cells in the columns.
