data baseball(keep= name team);

set sashelp.baseball;

if team = 'Cleveland';

run;

Sample output
Allanson, Andy Cleveland
Thornton, Andre Cleveland
Butler, Brett Cleveland
Jacoby, Brook Cleveland
Bando, Chris Cleveland
Castillo, Carmen Cleveland
Snyder, Cory Cleveland
Carter, Joe Cleveland
Franco, Julio Cleveland
Hall, Mel Cleveland
Tabler, Pat Cleveland
Bernazard, Tony Cleveland

 

 

PROC PRINT DATA = baseball noobs ;

var name team;

label team = 'My Team';

RUN;

The output is not changing the team name to 'My Team'.  I researched this and I believe I am using correct syntax???

Name Team
Allanson, Andy Cleveland
Thornton, Andre Cleveland
Butler, Brett Cleveland
Jacoby, Brook Cleveland
Bando, Chris Cleveland
Castillo, Carmen Cleveland
Snyder, Cory Cleveland
Carter, Joe Cleveland
Franco, Julio Cleveland
Hall, Mel Cleveland
Tabler, Pat Cleveland
Bernazard, Tony Cleveland

Add the label option in the proc print (and avoid coding in mixed/upper case):

proc print data=baseball noobs label;
  var name team;
  label team = 'My Team';
run;

You have to add the LABELS option to PROC PRINT so it knows to use labels.
