Hi! I am trying to recreate a current table I have into the format that proc tabulate creates, but it's not working out correctly. I'm not sure where I am currently going wrong.

 

I have an outputted table that looks like this:

datetaking_medscount
1/10500
1/11100
1/2046
1/2194
1/30455
1/3112
1/40224
1/4181

 

When I do proc_tabulate, I get the following table:

A_Halps_0-1635878979743.png

 

It should look like this though:

A_Halps_1-1635879879681.png

 

 

Here is my code:

proc sql;
create table meds as
select distinct date, taking_meds, count(*) as count
from (select * from t_meds where date ne "")
group by date, taking_meds;
quit;


proc tabulate data = meds;
class date taking_meds;
tables date, taking_meds* (N rowpctn) all;
run;

 

Thanks!

you need to specify FREQuency:

data  meds;
input date $ taking_meds count;
cards;
1/1	0	500
1/1	1	100
1/2	0	46
1/2	1	94
1/3	0	455
1/3	1	12
1/4	0	224
1/4	1	81
;
run;

proc tabulate data = meds;
  class date taking_meds;
  FREQ count;
  tables date, taking_meds * (N rowpctn) all*N;
run;
