Hi, I am using SAS EG 5.1 at work. I have a data base like below, with 14 columns. 1st column is unique IDs , and the rest are Instructions, which are in form of codes (numbers between 0 - 200) . Is there a way I can calculate the frequency of occurrence of a specific code value (for eg 30) in the whole instruction 1 : instruction 13 grid collectively. I have tried Proc freq, but that gives me tables for single columns separately.
I have previously done this in excel using the countif (range, criteria) code where I have set the range to the whole grid, and criteria as the value of the specific code.
Is there a SAS EG/BASE equivalent to the above function , where I can find the collective frequency of a specific number in a range of columns.
ID | instruction 1 | instruction2 | instruction 3 | instruction 4 | instruction 10 |

Thank you for the help
Here you go, I shortened my answer but I think you'll get the idea:
data have ;
input id instruction1 instruction2 instruction3 instruction4 instruction5 instruction6;
cards;
1 1 0 0 0 0 0
2 0 0 0 0 0 0
3 1 1 1 1 1 1
4 0 0 1 0 1 0
5 1 0 1 0 1 0
;
proc transpose data=have out=prep;by id;
proc sql;
create table want as
select count(col1) as result
from prep
where col1 = 1;
