Hi, Manuel!

To go from 9 to 6 in the first (class) column:

proc tabulate data=yourdata;
  class class1;
  table class1... etc. / rts=6;  <row title spacing

To go from 11 to 20 (or 15) in the analysis variables, use a "global-like"
format on your proc tablulate statement:

proc tabulate data=yourdata format=20.0 (or however many decimal places...);

options nocenter;

Might get the left-justification you're looking for...

Hope this helps!

- Pat

I am using proc tabulate in SAS 8.1 and SAS 6.14.

I need a way to increase or decrease column size for all the class
variables.
All class columns are characters.

a) To go from 9 to 6 (first column). (9 position character to 6 position
character)

b) To go from 11 to 20

c) To go from 11 to 15

In general what are the options that I can use to change the default used
by proc tabulate on class columns size.

Also if it is possible to shift the whole table to the left (instead of the
standard default of centering). If possible to shift the number of positions
requested. (like shift whole table to the left 15 positions).

Thanks.
