Hi all!

I'm currently stuck with a SAS issue regarding Vertical Summation which I hope someone might be able to solve for me Smiley Happy

I have a lot of information regarding different products which I have tried to illustrate beneth.

OrdernumberColorCustomer nameXXX
212913BlueJones3
212913RedJones3

212913

BlueJones3
212888GreenCarina2
212888YellowCarina2

What I am seeking is to create a new variable with the information on the size of the order the product was sold in.

Basicly I'm looking for is a function to summarize the amount of times ordernumber appears and then create a new variable telling me the size of the order the product was sold in (Illustrated by the name XXX, this could have been replaced with Ordersize).

Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks
