Hello community,

I'm new with this of SAS, and I have the titanic quest of improve the quality of a giant bussiness database. Why I introduce myself like this? Well, this is my first post, thanks to the community's paper I have been able to resolve the problem that cross in my way until now, and... I think it's not gonna be the last.

This time I need to do the next thing:

 

I have a dataset like this:

Captura.PNG

My work here is to make a table with the ammount of missing values. 

With the number is easy, with a proc tabulate is enough, but... with the characters... well...

I tried with this Cody's code (From Cody's Data Cleaning Technique):

 

PROC FORMAT;
	VALUE $MISSCH ' ' = 'Missing' 
		    OTHER = 'NonMissing';
RUN;

PROC TABULATE DATA=WORK MISSING;
	CLASS _character_;
	TABLE _character_, N;
	FORMAT _character_ $MISSCH.;
RUN;

And I obtain a table like this:

Captur1a.PNG

But, I need this:

Captura.PNG

Someone can give me a tip? 

Thanks for your attention, everybody.

Switch N and __character_ in your table statement?

Can you not manipulate the output of a freq procedure to get your result:

data have;
input var1 $ var2;
cards;
some 1
thing 2
. 3
here .
. 4
;
run;

proc freq data=have;
ods output onewayfreqs=onewayfreqs;
tables _all_;
run;

data onewayfreqs;
set onewayfreqs (keep=table cumfrequency);
by table;
if last.table then output;
run;

proc sql;
create table WANT as
select A.TABLE,
B.NOBS - A.CUMFREQUENCY as MISSING,
A.CUMFREQUENCY as NONMISSING
from ONEWAYFREQS A
left join (select * from SASHELP.VTABLE where LIBNAME="WORK" and MEMNAME="HAVE") B
on 1=1;
quit;
