How to Prepare for the SAS Certified Specialist Base Programming Exam

 

Lesson 7: Display Contents from dataset

IMPORTANT! We have recently updated our training materials. Check out the latest free training here. 

Proc Print and Proc Report are the two common ways to display contents from the SAS dataset. 

Example

In this dataset, we have the performance reviews from two of our sales agents in the car dealership. We are going to print out the sales performance in each of the quarter using the PROC PRINT procedure.

PROC PRINT DATA=Perf;
RUN; 

On the Output window, you will see that the performance from each agent is printed exactly the same as what we see in the dataset. This is a good way to print out for review purposes.

DONE! You have learned the PROC PRINT function in SAS! 

Note:  

1. PROC PRINT procedure doesn't allow much flexibility in how the data can be presented. For a better control of the output layout, PROC REPORT should be used. This will be explained in the next section.
