proc sql;
create table new_file as
select code, A , B1, B2
from myfile;

quit;run;

I have the following dataset and need to create a report with a
percentage to be calculated in. For some reason, the calcualted field
new_field all showed up as missing value, can someone tell me what may
cause this? Thanks.

proc report data=new_file;
columns code A B1 B2 new_field;

define code / group;
define A / display;
define B1/ noprint;
define B2 / noprint;
define new_field/ format=&percent;
compute new_field ;
new_field=B1 / B2;
endcomp;
run;

I think you need the 'computed' keyword :

define new_field/ format=&percent. computed;
