New Label Specifications Specify SAS syntax for new labels. • The syntax is of the form varname="label" varname2="label2" ... for as many variables as you want. • One label must be specified for each variable. • Each label must be enclosed in double quotation marks ( “” ). • You can specify " " as a blank label, which is the same as removing the label. To Specify New Labels: Enter valid SAS syntax for new labels into the New Label Specifications text field.
