Variable use in _webout without using %STPBEGIN and %STPEND(*urgent)

Tanmoy — Wed, 18 Mar 2015 07:29:39 GMT

Hi,

.I have to create one store process where I have to display the data in HTML page. I created but it was giving me an error-

* _webout in use.

I removed %STPBEGIN and %STPEND and executed as well.It worked . I checked the output but I couldn't see the macro value .

EX:-

global check;

%let Check=10;

data _null_;

file _webout;

put '<HTML>';

put '<HEAD><TITLE>Hello World!</TITLE></HEAD>';

put '<BODY>';

put '<H1>Hello World!&check</H1>';

put '</BODY>';

put '</HTML>';

run;

OUTPUT:-

HELLO World!&check

but the output should have been Hello World!10

***pls help :smileyplain:

If you want the macro processor to resolve a macro variable, you must use double quotes. Single quotes keep the macro processor from working on the enclosed string.
