I have a simple dataset. Is it possible to obtain a p-value using the Cochran-Armitage test?  The following is the table:

Group

Successes

Total Trials

Proportion

20

500

0.04

1000

0.03

You have all the information you need.  You will just need to restructure your data set like the following:

data test;
input Group Successes Total;
cards; 
1 20 500 
2 30 1000
3 40 500
;
run;
data test2;
set test;
resp='y';ct=successes;output;
resp='n';ct=total-successes;output;
run;

proc freq data=test2 order=data;
weight ct;
tables resp*group/trend;
run;

Yes. As long as your contingency table is 2xC or Rx2 , you can do Cochran-Armitage test.

But you need transform your data into this structure:

How can I restructure my data to match the format you mentioned? I don't have any additional information.
