Hi,

How can I change longitudinal data from 'long' format to 'wide' format?
I know how to do it in main SAS.

Thank you,

FS

In EGuide 4.3,

Tasks -- data -- Split columns

Will get you to PROC TRANSPOSE to take many rows into many columns.

Use the Stack columns task to go the other way.

You can also write your own code to do it, as you would do in Base SAS.

File->New->Program...

And then use techniques as Rick describes here:

if you are dealing with event history data, use PROC EXPAND, which is a point & click task in EG.
