Hello,
I'm trying to write a macro to get yesterday's date and use it as part of a file name in my PROC EXPORT code.
Desired file name would include the date in DATE9. format.
My code:
PROC EXPORT DATA=Work.Output
OUTFILE="/sas/Applicable Claims &TEST..CSV"
DBMS=CSV REPLACE;
Run;
Some of my TEST macros that I've tried (not on the same run):
%let TEST= %sysfunc(%eval(Today()-1),DATE9.);
%let TEST= %eval(TODAY()-1);
%let TEST= %put %sysfunc(putn(%eval(%sysfunc(today())-1),date9.));
%let TEST= %put %sysfunc(intnx(day,%sysfunc(today()),-1),date9.);
%let TEST= %put %eval(%sysfunc(today())-1);
%let TEST = %eval(%sysfunc(today(),)-1);
I'm writing free-lance code in EG 9.4
Thanks!
data _null_;
call symput('test',put(date()-1,date9.));
run;
And a tip: DO NO USE BLANKS IN FILENAMES!
Use underlines instead.
