Subject:      50th Percentile
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

I have a project request where I have to find the 50th percentile for a
field, and then print that, along with other information on that
particular record.  Let's say I have a dataset that is built from this
code:

data batters;
input lname $ fname $ avg;
cards;
SAMMY SOSA .341
MOISES ALOU .249
PAUL BAKO .205
ALEX GONZALEZ .241
ARAMIS RAMIREZ .301
COREY PATTERSON .292
DAVID KELTON .285
;
run;

Proc Univariate, from what I can tell, will not allow me to display the
LNAME and FNAME for the AVG that is the 50th percentile.  How can I
report the AVG that is the 50th percentile along with the LNAME and
FNAME for that record?

Thanks in advance.
