I am trying to use Proc Distance. Some variables that I have are actually nominal values but it was coded with numbers....such as department code>>> (coded as 123987, 902344 etc.)
How could I tell the Proc Distance that the values are NOT numeric??? How could i tell Proc Distance that the numbers are actually nominal values???
Though not my personal expertise area, there are SAS support http://support.sas.com/ references you may find useful -- I used the Google advanced search argument below to find them (for your future reference as well):
