Hi guys, I'd like to calculate 95% CI in the proc tabulate output. However, the output doesn't make sense. Any hints for what I might be doing wrong here?

It works fine, you didn't apply any format to it, so it shows as decimals instead. 

Apply a percentage format and make sure it's long enough to show at least one decimal place.

Please provide sample data if possible and your expected result.

 

Try using PROC UNIVARIATE instead.

Thanks,

Describe what about that output "does not make sense".

By any chance did you want the confidence limits to show % signs? Use a format similar to the way you did means, though I suggest making it a bit wider and including a couple more decimal places
