Hi, I am trying to use proc means to see what is the missing rate for some variables in my dataset. I used the following code to generate an output dataset. However, I did not see "nmiss" column in my output. I somehow saw it when I opt-out the "noprint" option, and saw it in my output page. Does anyone know how I can make it appears in my output dataset too?
proc means data = infile n mean nmiss min max std nway;
class month;
var a b c d;
output out = outfile;
run;
And @newboy1218 For your example, you could use
ods output summary=outfile;
proc means data = infile n mean nmiss min max std nway stackodsoutput;
class month;
var a b c d;
run;

Specify the statistics that you want in the output statement.
proc means data=yourinputdata youroptions ;
your class statement ;
your var statement ;
OUTPUT OUT=youroutputdataset NMISS= N= MEAN= MIN= MAX=;
run;
