Final answer:
A FORMAT cannot be used in a TITLE statement. While formats are applicable in PUT statements, FORMAT statements, and the FORMAT= option, the TITLE statement accepts only literal text for report titles and does not support format application.
Step-by-step explanation:
You cannot use a FORMAT in a TITLE statement. In the context of SAS programming, the FORMAT is used to control the written representation of data. Formats can be applied in various parts of the SAS language, including the PUT statement, the FORMAT statement, and in a data step or proc step via the FORMAT= option to assign a format to a variable.
However, you cannot apply a format within a TITLE statement. The TITLE statement in SAS is used for specifying text for titles in reports or printed output. As it deals with literal text, it does not process formats which are used for variables.
