Hi Everyone.

When using Proc Print on a PD7 (packed decimal) Infile variable, it is abbreviating the printing of the column (using scientific notation) . I read in the manual that the default numeric width is 12, whereas I need 15 wide column. I tried WIDTH=FULL and it didn't help.
Is there a way to expand the width of a single Infile variable using Proc Print?

Thanks

I think all you need is a format for the variable. Maybe

[pre]format varname 15.;[/pre]

would suffice.
