Hi, I need to add brackets for a list of numerical variables. It seems that the concatenation doesn't work in an ARRAY statement. This kind of data step doesn' work:     data temp2;                 set temp1;                 array A(*) cat1-cat&N_cat;                 array B(*) &level._se1-&level._se&N_cat;                 do j=1 to dim(A);                         B(j)=cats('(',A(j),')');                 end;      run; Because the number of variables to adapt can change, I thought to use an array statement. Maybe with a proc format ? Thanks for your help ... View more
