Label Doesn't Show

[chinli72]

Would somebody please explain why the label is not labeling the variables?

data test;
	label n = "num";
	label c = "char";
	input n c $;
cards;
1 123
2 xyz
run;

proc contents data=test; run;

Proc contents output has no labels.

Thank you very much.

Please try the below code

data test;
	label n = "num"
	c = "char";
	input n c $;
cards;
1 123
2 xyz
run;

proc contents data=test; 
run;

Please put your input statement at the beginning followed by your label statement. Let's see, if it works

Looks like you have turned of the LABEL system option.

Check it.

proc options option=label;
run;

Turn it back on.

options label;

You nailed it on the head. The labels are showing now. Thank you and all who helped.
