Hi,

You have to read statistical books that work with SAS, or refer to the manual
SAS/STAT User's Guide.
Here is the solution:
Assume you have a dataset named a1. There are two variables one: d1 the
dependent var. and the other d2 the independent var.
You wanted to save the residuals in another data set from the regression:
Here is the output from some nonsense data:
      Obs    d1    d2       rd1

       1     12    13     1.52985
       2     15    16     0.47761
       3     10    14    -1.82090
       4       9    12    -0.11940
       5       5      9    -0.06716


proc reg data=a1;
   model d1 = d2;
   output out=a2 r=rd1;
   run;

HTH,
Aldi
