I am trying to duplicate the results of a STATA Cluster analysis without any success. In STATA you can define what distance function you want to use. How do you do that in SAS? I want to use the cityblock distance function.

an example of how to create a distance matrix for the use in a cluster proc. The method cityblock is available for PROC DISTANCE.
