Visual Analytics

 

Can anyone tell me how to add an empty column into a list table and give it a header 'Comments'.

 

Idea is when they export the table to excel it includes an empty column headed 'Comments' for the user to use on the spreadsheet version.

 

Thanks

How are you creating the LIST table?

 

In Proc report add the column entry "comment" to the columns statment.

Define Comment as computed.

In the compute block assign a value like '            ';

You can do this by adding a Calculated Item to the List Table data source.
