I would like to know if there is a test for this in the SAS and where I can find references about. This sound like multiple comparison of proportions in a contingency table that has one row and 10 columns. > > A B C D E F G H I J K total >M p1 p2 p3 p4 p5 p6 p7 p8 p9 p10 N > >Where pi=Ni/N, AND sum(Ni)=N

Generate one-way frequency tables and request the chi-square test, e.g.,

proc freq; tables column /chisq; by row; run;

This will generate (separately for each row) a chi-square goodness-of-fit test of the null hypothesis that the row proportions are all equal.
