Hi guys, need help in understanding the statement - “Listing of common variables with differing attributes” from PROC Compare.

I don’t see any difference in type, length, format and informat. So where is the differing attribute?

Hi

 

Does one variable have a label and the other not, or just different labels?

 

Please share the proc compare output that shows the listing of the common variables using the Insert Code icon "</>".

 

 

Thanks & kind regards,

Amir.

I guess you are right. I check in the dictionary.columns, all variables Compare table are having Label.

Sorry that i cant share here because it’s confidential.
