Save output variable as macro variable

jamal01 — Tue, 29 Nov 2022 14:03:50 GMT

Hello,

Screenshot I will be referring to:

I am trying to save the value of "iterations" into a macro variable in my sas code.

I saved this table into a txt file, as it is an output from another sas program.

Is it possible for me to take the 10 from this table and create a macro variable with this value?

Thank you

From which procedure does this originate?
