SAS Create a dataset with two Column Values










0















I have got a variable &OldCount in SAS Enterprise Guide and I am trying to create a new dataset called Count1 which has one Column Called VarName and a second column Called ColumnCount. I want to create a row where VarName = "OldCountTotal" and ColumnCount = The value of Oldcount (let's say 56).



How do I do this linking the Column Count value to the macro variable created?



enter image description here



Thanks in advance for helping me.

          If I understand you correctly, you would do the following (generating just a single-row dataset):



          data Count1;
          VarName = 'OldCountTotal';
          ColumnCount = &OldCount.;
          output;
          run;


          I assume your variable is defined earlier in the program, something like this:



          %let OldCount = 56;
