Hi,

Is there a way to calculate a weighted average in SAS EG by utilizing the “Summary Tables” in Tasks. I only know how to use the Query Builder. 

Thanks

Yes, see page 2 screenshot here which shows the Weight/Frequency columns. If you have statistical weights, use the weight column. If your weights are integers then you can use the FREQ column.

FYI- the summarize task uses PROC TABULATE as the back bone.
