SAS Community,
I am trying to create pseudo columns using inline tab character in my PROC REPORT. I have read numerous papers and tried many techniques but I am not getting the desired result. In the code below I am using "09"x to point to where I would like the tab in my output. The SAS compiler has typically indicated that what I was attempting was not permitted.
I am looking for suggestion on the proper method on inserting tabs in my PROC REPORT output. Thanks.
ODS escapechar='^';
COMPUTE BEFORE _PAGE_ / left;
IF _BREAK_ = ' ' THEN
DO;
text1="^{style [font_face=wingdings font_size=12 pt foreground=MEGR]n}"
||"Avg Charges <= 10th Percentile: " || strip(put(avg_chg10.sum,dollar14.1)) || "^{"09"x}"
||"^{style [font_face=wingdings font_size=12 pt foreground=DAGR]n}"
||"Avg Charges >= 90th Percentile: " || strip(put(avg_chg90.sum,dollar14.1));
END;
** Put New Variables in Line Statements;
LINE text1 $300.;
ENDCOMP;
Post the errors, best is the whole Proc report step and messages from the Log.
Thanks.
Cynthia_sas indicated that I would not be able to insert a tab in ODS PDF output in her reply to a comment by a another user.
