Hello
The following raw data table is a summary table that includes 4 categorical variables and 1 numeric variable.
It contains 42 rows.
I want to display the table in a different way where there is 2 dimensional table:
In X-axis there will be 2 categorical variables :Z1+Z2 (Z1 has 2 levels, Z2 has 3 levels)
In Y-axis there will be 2 categorical variables :Z3+Z4 (Z3 has 2 levels ,Z4 has 3 levels)
When the value of a category is same for multiple cells then it is better to display it as one value
Data Report_tbl;
INFILE DATALINES DLM=',';
input Z4 $ Z3 $ Z2 $ Z1 $ Y ;

Seems to be a problem solved by proc tabulate if you want a report. If you want a 2 dim table as dataset, i have to ask: why? That structure is hardly useful for any form of further processing.
