I'm trying to change the label of a variable. But the option is not working. In the log it is showing modification is successful. But the label for the variable is still blank.
When I use other options like rename, it is working fine and the variable name is being changed.
Following is the below code, where I'm facing the issue.
data cls2; set sashelp.class; run; proc datasets; modify cls2; rename name = t; label t = 'test' sex = 'test2' ; quit;
Following is the log for the above code
The output is
Could you please help me, where I'm getting the code wrong
Check your options, there's a label/nolabel option that could be set on your server.
Post the output from the suggested code on SO.
Hi Reeza,
I've updated the post with the output.
That's not the output from the code.
thats the cls2 dataset modified after the proc datasets procedure is run.
Ok then. The code has no issues, your log has no issues.
You're doing something wrong and unless you post the full log from the code I *had* posted on SO we can't tell you anything else.
Notice that that's the same response you're getting on SO.
Good Luck.
