How do I add a zero before the decimal when formatting a pvalue?
data pvalue;
p = 0.00000;
run;
proc print data=pvalue;
format p pvalue6.3;
run;
format pvalue6.3 outputs "<.001" but I want the output to read as "<0.001"
One way is to create your own format:
proc format; value mypval low -< 0.001 = '<0.001' other =[pvalue6.3] ; run; data example; x=0.000032; format x mypval6.3; run;
you will need to make sure the format is available in each session you want to use it.

A little experimentation seems to lead me to the conclusion that this is not possible with the PVALUE format.
I think you can create a PICTURE format for this. Example: https://documentation.sas.com/doc/en/pgmsascdc/9.4_3.4/proc/n1cfmr7vkts0wen1uy3mdge44phy.htm
