error 180-322 with IF THEN DO END in macro

Hello,

i have a macro code in the following structure:

%let Waehrung = 1;

%macro Pruefung (sparte=, Marktsegment=, WAE = &Waehrung);

Data temp.&sparte._&Marktsegment.;
set temp.&sparte._&Marktsegment.;

run;
%mend Pruefung;

It works.

But if i add the "if then do; end" like:

%macro Pruefung (sparte=, Marktsegment=, WAE = &Waehrung);

If WAE = 1 then do:

Data temp.&sparte._&Marktsegment._1;
set temp.&sparte._&Marktsegment.;

run;

end;

If WAE = 2 then do:

Data temp.&sparte._&Marktsegment._2;
set temp.&sparte._&Marktsegment.;

run;

end;

%mend Pruefung;

If doesn't work any more.

ERROR 180-322: Statement is not valid or it is used out of proper order.

Has someone an idea, why?

You need to use macro-statements inside a macro: %if instead of if ...
