Indenting in PROC Tabulate

[rajd1]

I have been trying to get some customized outputs in excel format and for some reason the indenting of the row headings in the categorical table is not working. The sheet name for the tabulate works and not for the second. Also, i want a nicer cleaner looking table where i can easily transport it to a word document. Any tips on making this table better will be helpful.

Can i also make the same tables by another dimension using the county variable? For example separate table by X,Y,and Z. THANK YOU!

Without data to test anything I will make a couple of suggestions.

One would be to add leading spaces to the values and then use a CLASSLEV statement with the option Style=[asis=on] to protect the leading spaces, or use the option with a format that provides the leading spaces.

RTS= doesn't have any affect outside of Listing output, same with NOSEPS.

You might want to control the row column headings with a Classlev option of width=XX and provide a unit such as inches or cm with XX being the number of units for the column.

Hi:

  I can do an indent as a style override with ODS EXCEL, but it doesn't work with TAGSETS.EXCELXP. The issue you're running into is that RTS and NOSEPS and INDENT as you show them are LISTING only options that are ignored by ODS destinations.

  This worked for me:

  Note that I have INDENT= in my code as a STYLE override on the VAR statement.

Hope this helps,

Cynthia
