1 An In-depth Look at PROC REPORT Jane Eslinger Senior Technical Support Analyst SAS Institute

2 HEADER LAYERS Goal: Learn how each layer (or row) is added to the header section of the report. title "vanilla"; proc report data=sashelp.cars nowd; column make origin mpg_city mpg_highway; title "add across"; proc report data=sashelp.cars nowd; column make origin drivetrain,(mpg_city mpg_highway); define drivetrain / across 'Drivetrain Category';

3 title "add spanning header over across"; proc report data=sashelp.cars nowd; column make origin ('Spanning MPG columns' drivetrain,(mpg_city mpg_highway)); define drivetrain / across 'Drivetrain Category'; title "add spanning header above Make"; title2 "add spanning header above Origin"; proc report data=sashelp.cars nowd; column ('Beside drivetrain values 1' make) ('Beside drivetrain values 2' origin) ('Spanning MPG columns' drivetrain,(mpg_city mpg_highway)); define drivetrain / across 'Drivetrain Category';

4 title "add another spanning header above Make"; proc report data=sashelp.cars nowd; column ('Beside drivetrain label' 'Beside drivetrain values 1' make) ('Beside drivetrain values 2' origin) ('Spanning MPG columns' drivetrain,(mpg_city mpg_highway)); define drivetrain / across 'Drivetrain Category';

5 title "add a spanning header above both Make and Origin"; proc report data=sashelp.cars nowd; column ('Spanning Make and Origin' ('Beside drivetrain label' 'Beside drivetrain values 1' make) ('Beside drivetrain values 2' origin)) ('Spanning MPG columns' drivetrain,(mpg_city mpg_highway)); define drivetrain / across 'Drivetrain Category';

6 RULES VALUES Goal: See borders created by the RULES= attribute. proc report data=sashelp.cars style(report)=[rules=all]; column make ('Beside drivetrain values' origin) drivetrain,(mpg_city mpg_highway); define drivetrain / across 'Drivetrain'; proc report data=sashelp.cars style(report)=[rules=cols];

7 proc report data=sashelp.cars style(report)=[rules=rows]; proc report data=sashelp.cars style(report)=[rules=groups]; proc report data=sashelp.cars style(report)=[rules=none];

8 SPANNING HEADERS Goal: Change the vertical border between the spanning headers for MAKE and ORIGIN to red. Change the horizontal border between the spanning header and the DRIVETRAIN label to yellow. ods escapechar="^"; proc report data=sashelp.cars(obs=100) nowd; column ('^S={borderrightcolor=red}Beside drivetrain values 1' make) ('^S={borderleftcolor=red}Beside drivetrain values 2' origin) ('^S={borderbottomcolor=yellow}Spanning MPG columns' drivetrain, (mpg_city mpg_highway)); define drivetrain / across 'Drivetrain Category';

9 proc report data=sashelp.cars(obs=100) nowd; column ('^S={borderrightcolor=red}Beside drivetrain values 1' make) ('^S={borderleftcolor=red}Beside drivetrain values 2' origin) ('^S={borderbottomcolor=yellow}Spanning MPG columns' drivetrain, (mpg_city mpg_highway)); define drivetrain / across '^S={bordertopcolor=yellow}Drivetrain Category';

10 proc report data=sashelp.cars(obs=100) nowd; column ('^S={borderrightcolor=red}Beside drivetrain values 1' make) ('^S={borderleftcolor=red}Beside drivetrain values 2' origin) ('Spanning MPG columns' drivetrain,(mpg_city mpg_highway)); define drivetrain / across 'Drivetrain Category' style(header)=[bordertopcolor=yellow];

11 data cars; set sashelp.cars; flag='drivetrain'; proc report data=cars(obs=100) nowd; column ('^S={borderrightcolor=red}Beside drivetrain values 1' make) ('^S={borderleftcolor=red}Beside drivetrain values 2' origin) ('Spanning MPG columns' flag, drivetrain,(mpg_city mpg_highway)); define flag / across '' style(header)=[bordertopcolor=yellow]; define drivetrain / across '';

12 BACKGROUND COLORS IN HEADERS Goal: Use inline formatting to change the background color of a header cell to green in HTML output. ods escapechar="^"; proc report data=sashelp.cars(obs=100) nowd; column ('Beside drivetrain values 1' make) ('Beside drivetrain values 2' origin) ('Spanning MPG columns' drivetrain,(mpg_city mpg_highway)); define drivetrain / across '^S={background=lightgreen}Drivetrain';

13 data cars; set sashelp.cars; flag='drivetrain'; proc report data=cars(obs=100) nowd; column ('Beside drivetrain values 1' make) ('Beside drivetrain values 2' origin) ('Spanning MPG columns' flag, drivetrain,(mpg_city mpg_highway)); define flag / across '' style(header)=[background=lightgreen] missing; define drivetrain / across '';

14 COLUMN BORDERS Goal: Remove the borders between the MPG_CITY and MPG_HIGHWAY columns so that it is easier to distinguish the DRIVETRAIN groupings. proc report data=sashelp.cars(obs=100) nowd; column make origin drivetrain,(mpg_city mpg_highway); define drivetrain / across 'Drivetrain'; define mpg_city / style(column header)= [borderrightcolor=white borderrightwidth=0pt just=c]; define mpg_highway / style(column header)= [borderleftcolor=white borderleftwidth=0pt just=c];

15 proc report data=sashelp.cars(obs=100) nowd style(report)=[rules=rows]; column make origin drivetrain,(mpg_city mpg_highway); define make / group 'Vehicle Brand' style(header column)=[borderleftwidth=.75pt borderleftcolor=cx919191]; define origin / group 'Vehicle Origin' style(header column)=[borderleftwidth=.75pt borderleftcolor=cx919191]; define drivetrain / across 'Drivetrain' style(header column)=[borderleftwidth=.75pt borderleftcolor=cx919191]; define mpg_city / style(header column)=[borderleftwidth=.75pt borderleftcolor=cx just=c]; define mpg_highway / style(column)=[just=c];
