898 PROC REPORT Statement 4 Chapter 43
QNTLDEF=1|2|3|4|5
specifies the mathematical definition that the procedure uses to calculate quantiles
when the value of the QMETHOD= option is OS. When QMETHOD=P2, you must
use QNTLDEF=5.
Default: 5
Alias: PCTLDEF=
Main discussion: “Quantile and Related Statistics” on page 1359
REPORT=libref.catalog.entry
specifies the report definition to use. PROC REPORT stores all report definitions as
entries of type REPT in a SAS catalog.
Interaction: If you use REPORT=, then you cannot use the COLUMN statement.

Featured in: Example 7 on page 980
SHOWALL
overrides options in the DEFINE statement that suppress the display of a column.
See also: NOPRINT and NOZERO in “DEFINE Statement” on page 912
SPACING=space-between-columns
specifies the number of blank characters between columns. For each column, the sum
of its width and the blank characters between it and the column to its left cannot
exceed the line size.
Default: 2
Restriction: This option has no effect on ODS destinations other than traditional
SAS monospace output.
Interaction: PROC REPORT separates all columns in the report by the number of
blank characters specified by SPACING= in the PROC REPORT statement unless
you use SPACING= in the DEFINE statement to change the spacing to the left of
a specific item.
Interaction: When CENTER is in effect, PROC REPORT ignores spacing that
precedes the leftmost variable in the report.
Featured in: Example 2 on page 965
SPLIT=’character’
specifies the split character. PROC REPORT breaks a column header when it
reaches that character and continues the header on the next line. The split character
itself is not part of the column header although each occurrence of the split character
counts toward the 256-character maximum for a label.
Default: slash (/)
Interaction: The FLOW option in the DEFINE statement honors the split character.
Restriction: This option has no effect on ODS destinations other than traditional
SAS monospace output.

STYLE=
specifies the style element to use for the specified locations in the report. See “Using
Style Elements in PROC REPORT” on page 879 for details.
Restriction: This option affects only the HTML, RTF, and Printer output.
