Sample from Gerhard Svolba

This sample deals with the situation when data needs to the restructured from a multiple-row-per-subject structure into a one-row-per-subject structure.

If only one variable needs to be transposed, PROC TRANSPOSE can perform these tasks directly. If however 2 or more variables will be transposed per BY group, you need to transpose each variable separately. To do this, use %MAKEWIDE to transpose several variables in one pass.
