I have output looks like this:

 

rownum    meat             col01            col02   

1               beef              a1                 a2                  

1               chicken         b1                 b2

1               pork              c1                 c2

2               beef              a3                 a4

2               chicken         b3                 b4

2               pork              c3                 c4

 

I want to change into format like below:

 

rownum      colnum      beef      chicken        prok

1                 01               a1         b1              c1

2                 01               a3         b3              c3

1                 02               a2         b2              c2

2                 02               a4         b4              c4

 

How can I do it in sql?

Thanks!

Do you need to do that using proc sql? Quite easy using proc transpose:

proc transpose data=have out=want name=colnum;
 var col01 col02;
 by rownum;
 id meat;
run;

data want;
  set want;
  colnum=compress(colnum,,'kd');
run;
