Formatting Proc Univariate Variables as a Percent

[BRT001]

Hi,

I am running a statistical analysis using the proc univariate (proc uni) function and to format the proc uni variable, I used the percent function percentn.n.  It worked for just the first variable but not for the others.  I was wondering if there is a special/different function for formatting proc uni variables as a percent?

I believe you need to apply the format to the variables in the separate dataset with the existing dataset created by the proc univariate

Please show the statements that you are using. PROC UNIVARIATE ignores formats except for CLASS variables and for the display of INSET statistics.

Hi, 

Here is an example of the statements I am using (the percentages work for the output but not for the results):

PROC SQL;

CREATE TABLE SET100 AS SELECT DISTINCT

A.YRY,

A.MTM,

A.ID,

A.RES,

A.PRES,

(PRES * MoDays*24) as total_month,

A.DRES/calculated total_month  format percentn10.2 AS PTRES

FROM SET00 A

WHERE A.CRES>0 AND A.DRES>0

order by calculated ptres desc;

QUIT;

proc univariate data=SET100;

var PTRES;

run;

ODS RTF CLOSE;

A.DRES/calculated total_month  AS PTRES   format=percentn10.2
