PROC FORMAT creates permanent formats for Sector, Manager, and Department.
The LIBRARY= option specifies a permanent storage location so that the formats
are available in subsequent SAS sessions. These formats are used for examples
throughout this section.
proc format library=proclib;
value $sctrfmt 'se' = 'Southeast'
'ne' = 'Northeast'
'nw' = 'Northwest'
'sw' = 'Southwest';
value $mgrfmt '1' = 'Smith' '2' = 'Jones'
'3' = 'Reveiz' '4' = 'Brown'
'5' = 'Taylor' '6' = 'Adams'
'7' = 'Alomar' '8' = 'Andrews'
'9' = 'Pelfrey';
value $deptfmt 'np1' = 'Paper'
'np2' = 'Canned'
'p1' = 'Meat/Dairy'
