Ashley,

Karma showed you how to get the format names.  If you want to see the labels use

   proc format lib = REFCAT fmtlib ;
   run ;

If out would rather manipulate them then use

   proc format lib = REFCAT cntlout=fmtdata ;
   run ;

In either case add SELECT statement to restrict the selection of formats.
After manipulation you can use

   proc format lib = REFCAT cntlin=modified_fmtdata ;
   run ;
