Latex and SAS output
Hi, I am having a little difficulty with the latex tagset. The output runs off the page. For example when I use proc corr, it adds additional columns for the p-values rather than having it look like the original output. I don't have this problem when I am using ods rtf. I also wanted to know how to change the... 16 Dec 2009 00:26

The second one used explicit reference to the array and worked as expected. Wonder why? Is it because do over always use the same index var, so the inner loop changes ... 15 Dec 2009 14:28
