Wardnine,

  Your post does not inspire a lot of confidence.  The most basic method
would be to create a new variable using an assignment statement in the
data step.  Most of us will probably suggest a format.  Beyond that you
could use the data step, FREQ procedure, TABULATE procedure, or REPORT
procedure, among many others, to calculate the proportion you desire.

Good luck,

Kevin
