for example i have a sample of 1500, and want to look at those with only certain characteristics;
i would like get the proc freq for those only with the characteristics as well.
what would be the code

You can add in WHERE statements to filter your results as needed. Almost any PROC's in SAS will take a WHERE statement.
/*filter a numeric value*/
proc freq data=sashelp.class;
where age = 13;
table sex;
run;
/*filter multiple numeric values*/
proc freq data=sashelp.class;
where age in (10, 11);
table sex;
run;
/*filter a character values*/
proc freq data=sashelp.class;
where sex = 'F';
table age;
run;
/*filter multiple character values*/
proc freq data=sashelp.class;
where name in ('Jane', 'Alfred');
table age;
run;
