Hi SAS-users,

is there a possibility to calculate the share of certain values of character variable within the whole value set, without counting the number of observations. I tried it with the procedure frequ and means, but it always resulted in complete number of observations instead of percentage shares.

For instance I want the percentage share of the variable drgh having the value 'K44Z' in relation to my complete number of observations.

Best,

Dennis

Sorry, I was too blind too detect the percentage shares on my output file. Guess I need a break from SAS.
