Data null,

Micky already replied to this- the user is using PROC MIANALYZE which clearly labels the CLASS statement as experimental and does not allow reference coding; the user stated that they could not get the CLASS statement to work in MIANALYZE as expected (I've never run that particular procedure).

Can GLMMOD or TRANSREG create indicator variables with reference coding? If so, could you give an example?

Yes it is called the CLASS statement. But if you insist on creating indicator variables PROC GLMMOD or PROC TRANSREG are better than any data step method.
