Proc Tabulate can be a very powerful tool for creating professional looking tables. And unlike Proc Report, Proc Tabulate is compatible with multilabel formats, making it possible to create hierarchical tables with groups and sub-groups. However, the syntax for Proc Tabulate is not particularly intuitive, so many programmers tend to shy away from it.
The purpose of this paper is to acquaint the reader with the basics of Proc Tabulate syntax. By the end of this paper, you should know how to create a basic table, use formats in your table, change headers and data labels, add row and column totals, and implement basic statistics.
The following examples were created using SASĀ® version 9.1.3. The output was created using ODS PDF in the SASweb style.
