Dear stat. subscribers:


I work for a bank.  I have a data set with 2,600,000 observations.  I would
like to determine an auditing sample size that is statistically significant
within 1% error.  If I can determine the sample size I need, I will use SAS
to pull out the sample size randomly, so I can do auditing.  I went back and
read my old statistics book, I found this formula with standard deviation,
but I don't have any standard deviation, so I don't think it is a right
formula.  Thank you for your help.

Thank you for your help,

Brian Vuong
