When I create an output data set in PROC TABULATE, the column heading includes the statistic for each variable.  For instance, the summed FEED variable is labeled "FEED_Sum".  Can I suppress the "Sum"?

You could rename the variable(s) (data set option on the next step that uses the data OR proc datasets) but if you are asking for 2 or more statistics for the same variable then what? You can't rename Feed_Sum and Feed_N to the same thing.

It may be that you could do a similar summary with Proc means/summary as then a single statistic could retain the original variable name.

Yes. It helps if you post your code but something like the following. Note that it is =with single or double quotes that are empty which erases the label.  You can also add in a custom label if you wanted.

proc tabulate data=sashelp.cars;

class make model;

var mpg_city mpg_highway;

table make*model, mpg_city*mean='' mpg_highway*mean='';

run;
