I like Ron's solution for the situation in which there is no other need for
the PROC MEANS output.

But perhaps the full output is required, but only part is to be exported.

Toni does not say what mechanism he is using for export. But it must somehow
reference the data set. So just code the DROP= data set option on that
reference.
