Do you man that you don't want to have to run the Proc Format every time the Stored Process runs?

 

If so save the generated format with the LIBRARY= option http://documentation.sas.com/?docsetId=proc&docsetTarget=n1c16dxnndwfzyn14o1kb8a4312m.htm&docsetVers...

 

Then use the OPTIONS FMTSEARCH statement to tell SAS where to look for that format http://documentation.sas.com/?docsetId=lesysoptsref&docsetTarget=p1fvn6rwmpf1njn1whkud1hmsc97.htm&do...
