Hi,

I would like to change the title from "Class_Number" to "Class Number". Even though i try so many ways, i couldn't write the right codes. Since i'm not very familiar with the coding i need some help.

*The reason that i ask for this is this is the last step of the coding before exporting it into excel. So i don't want to see the "_" between the words.

Here is some example of my codes which haven't worked.

1- Data ABC;

    Set ABCD;

    Class_Number = "Class Number";

    Run;

2- Data ABC;

    Set ABCD;

    Class_Number =Class +char(160)+Number;

    Run;

3- Data ABC;

    Set ABCD;

    A1="Sales Number"

    Class_Number =A1;

    Run;

you can use the label statement to label the variables and display the labels in the created excel file

consider that you have the variable Class_Number and you are changing the variable label to "Class Number".

1- Data ABC;

    Set ABCD;

label    Class_Number = "Class Number";

    Run;

proc export data=ABC outfile='~path\abc.xls'

label dbms=excel replace;

  run;

Thanks,
