Hi

 

Using SAS 7.1.

 

I only have 1 variable, but instead of presenting in column, I want in ROWS. How do I do that?

 

Thanks!

Would it be possible to share some of your data as sample and tell us how you expect the output to look like?

Hi,

 

THank you for the reply.

I have attached a sample.

 

I could do a transpose paste in excel, but as I have many tables it becomes tedious. Hence would prefer that SAS generate the tables as ROWS.

 

THank you

Here is something you may clone to your specific needs.... This is just one way of getting the output you desire... a bit lengthy but simple code....

 

data have;
input v1:$5. v2:$5. v3:$5. v4:$5.;
datalines;
Tom Peter Henry Jack 
100 101 102 103
;
run;

data name;
 set have;
 if _n_ = 1;
run;
proc transpose data=name out=names(drop=_name_);
  var v1 v2 v3 v4;
run;
data id;
 set have;
 if _n_ = 2;
run;
proc transpose data=id out=ids(drop=_name_);
  var v1 v2 v3 v4;
run;
data final;
 set names(rename=(col1=name));
 set ids(rename=(col1=id));
run;
proc print data=final;
run;

It produces the following output for your reference...

 

Obs	name	id
1	Tom	100
2	Peter	101
3	Henry	102
4	Jack	103

Hope this helps...!!! Good Luck...!!!
