Introduction
No one tool can do every
job, and PROC TABULATE is no exception. There are some things that
the procedure just cannot do.
This chapter shows examples
of tasks that PROC TABULATE was not designed to do.
For some of these tasks,
there are ways that you can trick PROC TABULATE into producing the
desired output. This chapter includes examples and code to show how
you can produce the desired result.
For other tasks, another
SAS tool might be recommended. For example, PROC PRINT and PROC REPORT
are also good tools to use for some types of tables.
Then there are tasks
where the work that you are doing is so complex that you might have
to use a variety of SAS and other tools to bring together the desired
elements into your table.
