Hi,

I have data that looks like this:

 

builidingname    vax1  vax2    vax3     buildingtype

happy days           1        2          4        private

learning tree          2       1          3        public

bean stalk              1      1          2        public

 

How do I summarize the info for all buildings as well as by buildingtype so I get the data like this:

      vax1                             vax2                            vax3

all   public private          all   public private       all   public private 

4       3         1               4         2        2             9      5         4

 

 

Thanks!

You don't need data set WANT.  This is actually a good case to use multiple analysis vars in the proc tabulate:

 

proc tabulate data=have noseps order=freq;

  class buildingtype;

  var vax1-vax3;

  tables sum=''*(vax1 vax2 vax3)*(all buildingtype='')*f=9.0;

run;

 

 

Using the "order=freq" is a bit sneaky since it won't reliably order the table as (All,Public,Private) although it does in this case, as per OP's sample output.

Is this a report or a dataset that you need? I'm guesing report based on the structure.

 

Have you looked at proc report or tabulate? If so, what does your code look like so far?

I would probably recommend proc tabulate.

Thank you!

Is it possible to output that into MS Excel instead of keeping it is SAS as HTML?

Sure.

 

ods excel file='c:\temp\x.xlsx';
