RANK Procedure
| Tips: | You can use the ATTRIB,
FORMAT, LABEL, and WHERE statements with the RANK procedure. For more information,
see Statements with the Same Function in Multiple Procedures. You can also use any global statement. For a list, see Global Statements in SAS Statements: Reference. For in-database processing to occur, your data must reside within a supported version of the DBMS that has been properly configured for SAS in-database processing. For more information, see In-Database Processing for PROC RANK. |
