SAS_learner,

Yeah, from the limited problem description, it seems you could simple rename '_type_' to 'trtgrp' and merge the proc means output directly with the original data set. But even this may be more work than you need (i.e. a proc sql with groups might suffice). If you provide your original problem, ideally with some example data, we could be more constructive with our suggestions.

Regards, Scott Bucher

I am not convinced that splitting data just to put it back together later is a good idea.
