Using SAS 9.4 I am running the following code to format a KM curve:

data _null_;
%let url = //support.sas.com/documentation/onlinedoc/stat/ex_code/151;
infile "http:&url/templft.html" device=url;

file 'macros.tmp';
retain pre 0;
input;
_infile_ = tranwrd(_infile_, '&', '&');
_infile_ = tranwrd(_infile_, '<' , '<');
if index(_infile_, '</pre>') then pre = 0;
if pre then put _infile_;
if index(_infile_, '<pre>') then pre = 1;
run;

%ProvideSurvivalMacros /* variables available. */

%let TitleText0 = "Figure 2: Implant Survival Free of Reoperation for Infection"; /* Change the title. */
%let TitleText1 = &titletext0 " for " STRATUMID;
%let TitleText2 = &titletext0;
%let xOptions = label="Time to Implant Failure (in Months)"
linearopts=(viewmin=0 viewmax=132
tickvaluelist=(0 12 24 36 48 60 72 84 96 108 120 132));
%let GraphOpts = attrpriority=none
DataLinePatterns=(Solid ShortDash);
%CompileSurvivalTemplates /* Compile the templates with */
/* the new title. */

proc lifetest data = have plots=survival(test ATRISK(maxlen=50));
time TT_fail_months *failure2(0) ;
strata INDEX_TYPE_REV ;
label INDEX_TYPE_REV = 'Index Revision Type'
TT_fail_months = 'Time to Implant Failure (in Months)' ;
run;

%ProvideSurvivalMacros /* Optionally restore the default */
/* macros and macro variables. */

proc template; /* Delete the modified templates. */
delete Stat.Lifetest.Graphics.ProductLimitSurvival / store=sasuser.templat;
delete Stat.Lifetest.Graphics.ProductLimitSurvival2 / store=sasuser.templat;
run;

It has previously run and produced the KM curve as specified. I am returning to it a few months later and now it will not run. Any help would be welcomed. Thank you

From the log: WARNING: Apparent invocation of macro PROVIDESURVIVALMACROS not resolved.

Did you run the code that creates the macro in your current SAS session before calling the macro?

Your data step wrote the macros to a local file. Then you skipped including them. Look at the documentation.

%inc 'macros.tmp' / nosource;
