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.
data have;
input buildingname & $20. vax1 vax2 vax3 buildingtype $;
cards;
happy days 1 2 4 private
learning tree 2 1 3 public
bean stalk 1 1 2 public
;
run;
proc transpose data=have out=want;
by buildingname buildingtype notsorted;
var vax:;
run;
proc tabulate data=want;
class _name_ buildingtype;
var col1;
table _name_=' '*(all buildingtype=' ')*col1=' '*sum=' '*f=best12.;
run;

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';
proc tabulate............
