Hello,
I am trying to create tables for each of my demographic variables along with whether a person is a case or a control.
This is what I have:
%local varlist;
%let varlist=age race sex etc;
proc freq data=my_data;
tables &varlist;
tables case*&varlist/chisq;
run;
Case indicates whether someone is a case or a control. The individual tables printed fine, and a table showing age by case/control status, but then the program stopped incorporating case/control status and just reprinted the overall frequencies for race, sex, etc.
Any help is much appreciated!
To use the composite (my term) table syntax with a group of variables they need to be in ().
Your second table statement should be :
tables case * (&varlist) / chisq;
