Do you prefer Proc Report or Proc Tabulate? Why?

Answer Posted / balanarasimhudu

By using TABULATE procedure, we can get quick descriptive statistics on data, but it does not meet the typical needs of generating clinical trial tables, some reasons.
&#61656; It does not provide p-values beyond a simple t-test.
&#61656; It does not present “n (%)” in a desired format.
&#61656; Variable labels are not clearly differentiated from the summary statistics labels.
&#61656; “Page X of N” pagination is not available.
&#61656; Missing values are handled in an “all or nothing” way, so if you exclude missing
values for one variable, you end up excluding all data for that record for the other
variables in the summary.
&#61656; It does not place population counts in the column heading.

The REPORT procedure was designed as a flexible report writing tool that combines features of the PRINT, MEANS, and TABULATE procedures along with “PUT” capabilities commonly used in the DATA step. so, I prefer to use proc report until I have cross tabulation tables, because, it gives me so many options to modify the look up of my table,(Ex: width option, by this we can change the width of each column in table like this so many options, statements we can use in proc report).
