| Abstract | Are you tired of writing the same code over and over? You don‟t need to do it! Usually macros will generate the code you want. Sometimes a query window or an Enterprise Guide task will write the code for you. There are other times when generating code requires more information than fits in parameters or task prompts. This paper discusses techniques for those difficult cases. You can use the DATA step to accept any amount of information, with any special characters, without fear or worries. The DATA step has two methods of generating code. First, it can create a text file of SAS® statements and execute the file with %INCLUDE. Second, it can use CALL EXECUTE to add statements to the program stack for execution after the step. Examples include applying externally supplied labels to variables and generating data validation reports based on rules in a spreadsheet. |
