Hi @Cynthia_sas ,
as I said in my previous answer, your solution does give the desired output.
However, when I run your code, the log keeps firing errors.
This is the complete code: ( &link_shared_folder had been defined outside this code)
data fakedata;
set sashelp.class;
varb = catx(" ",name,age);
run;
proc sort data=fakedata;
by age;
run;
proc format;
value w_by
11="1.25in"
12="1.25in"
13="2.0in"
14="3.0in"
15="1.25in"
16="1.25in"
;
run;
options nobyline;
%let path=&link_shared_folder\SAS\ODS\;
ods excel file="&path\diff_width.xlsx"
options (sheet_name='Age #byval1');
proc report data=fakedata out=a123;
by age;
column age varb sex height weight;
define age /order page;
define varb / display ;
define sex / display;
define height / display;
define weight / display;
compute before age;
holdage = age;
endcomp;
compute before _page_ /style=SystemTitle;
line 'THIS BYGROUP is for Age: ' Age 2.0;
endcomp;
compute varb;
length svar $50;
svar = catt ('style={width=',put (holdage,w_by.),'}');
call define (_col_,'style',svar);
endcomp;
run;
ods excel close;
As I already said, the resulting excel-file is what I want, but in the log, I keep having these errors.
I've tried to understand what the cause is, but I can't find the reason.
The same error is repeated for each by-group.
Do you have any idea what's the culprit here?
