Hi,
I am struggeling in labeling a simple variable in my output file. It always uses the variable name instead of the label. My code is:
PROC PRINT;
LABEL icd_n = 'Sum Diagnoses';
VAR icd_n;
run;
What did I do wrong in order to make SAS use the variable name in the output file?
Best,
Dennis
hi,
May be it is problem with quotes ....in the line...
LABEL icd_n = 'Sum Diagnoses';...................should like...
LABEL icd_n = Sum Diagnoses;

I think your label statement is correct but don't you need to tell PROC PRINT to use variable labels for column header. PROC PRINT statement option LABEL.
Yes, thanks for your replies, its working now.
