Hi, I'm calculating percentage in proc tabulate, but I need it to show up not in % (not multiplied by 100)
TABLE Transaction_Type*((AVM_Vendor_1*CI1_T)),N pctn<CI1_T all> /rts=35
How can I see pctn, in decimal format? eg. 0.35
Thanks
You never indicated what your actual number range was and the number of decimal places. My example code wouldonly cover whole numbers ranging between 1 and 100 and all possibly 10ths between those numbers.
If your range goes from 0 to 100, each with the possibility of also including a fraction less than or greater than .1, then you would have to modify the code by adding the creation of an end variable and start the loop at 0. e.g.:
data fractions;
format label 4.3;
retain fmtname 'fraction' type 'n';
do start=0 to 100 by .1;
end=start+0.0999999999;
label=start/100;
output;
end;
run;
proc format cntlin=fractions;
run;
Let us know if that works.

I can only think of one possibility (of course, there could easily be more). You could always just create a format to cover all possibilities. e.g. (I don't know your possibilities):
data fractions;
format label 4.3;
retain fmtname 'fraction' type 'n';
do start=1 to 100 by .1;
label=start/100;
output;
end;
run;
proc format cntlin=fractions;
run;
and then specify that format in your proc tabulate statement, e.g.:
pctn<CI1_T all>*f=fraction.
Thanks Art, I'll give it a try..
Hi Art, I tried running this :
data fractions;
format label 4.3;
retain fmtname 'fraction' type 'n';
do start=1 to 100 by .1;
label=start/100;
output;
end;
run;
proc format cntlin=fractions;
run;
pctn<CI1_T all>*f=fraction.
But got the same results..no errors though, but not divided by 100

Works perfectly... once again thanks Art..
