Why does X get truncated? X shows up as 22 instead of 220,9
instead of 90 and 19.8 instead of 198? This problem doesnt
happen with the values 193.6 and 123.4.
This does not happen if x is read on the 5. informat instead
of the 5.1 informat
In this question, I rename the numeric variable phone to

rename phone = numphone;
phone = put(numphone,comma16.);

I have 2 data sets A & B. Both have a variable called Age in
them, each of them specifying a different functionality.
In my program I use bot these data sets. How do I specify
which Age variable I want to use?

Idont understand what the (Ques1-Ques4)($1. + 1) means.
I have seen (Ques1-Ques4)(4*$1.), but what is
(Ques1-Ques4)($1. + 1)?
Appreciate all help

I don’t understand why Grade shows up as a missing value.
Everything seems fine, including ID $3.
Now, in case I use ID : $3. Or use column input, I get the
desired output.
Kindly help

Hello,
I have PROC SQLs results group by 3 fields and I use SUM and
COUNT functions in SQL. The problem is when I try to display
my result with PROC TABULATE. I am getting very big
numbers. I believe I make a mistake some where in Tabulate.
Here is my Proc Tabulate.
PROC TABULATE DATA=OUT04_05 FORMAT=12.;
CLASS YR CENTRE VISA / PRELOADFMT EXCLUSIVE;
VAR NEWUSER FRAUD TRANSFER AUTUSER REISSUE;
TABLE CENTRE ALL, (YR ALL)*VISA,
(NEWUSER*F=COMMA12. AUTUSER*F=COMMA12.
FRAUD*F=COMMA12. TRANSFER*F=COMMA12.
REISSUE*F=COMMA12.) /
MISSTEXT={LABEL='0'} PRINTMISS RTS=20;
FORMAT VISA VISAFMT.;
KEYLABEL SUM = ' '
ALL = 'TOTAL';
LABEL YR = 'DATE YEAR'
NEWUSER = 'TOTAL NEW ACCT'
TRANSFER = 'TOTAL TRANSFER'
FRAUD = 'TOTAL FRAUD TRANSFER'
AUTUSER = 'TOTAL AUTH USERS'
REISSUE = 'TOTAL REISSUE';
When I code it like : NEWUSER*N*F=COMMA12.
AUTUSER*N*F=COMMA12.
I get same amount numbers but to find a NEWUSER I use
COUNT(*) and to find AUTUSER I use SUM(xxxx) function so
both result shouldn’t be the same my problem is in this
point.
Could you tell me where the problem in code is. How can I
display my result?

Are you sensitive to code walk-throughs peer review or QC
review?

How will you react when, while consulting a SAS
documentation manual to get an answer to a problem, someone
says hey, I thought you were supposed to know all that
stuff already, and not have to look it up in a book?
