Referencing/including embedded code?

deleted_user — Fri, 04 Sep 2009 13:20:29 GMT

I cannot figure out how to reference/include embedded code since I cannot find any paths to the embedded code (and since they are embedded i guess i should not). Is there a way to reference/include embedded code in other embedded code?

Please help clarify your question regarding your interpretation of "embedded code"?

One SAS technique for refernencing such code is by using a FILENAME declaration with a and then use the %INCLUDE statement. The contents of the included code may be a code snippet, an entire SAS program, or a set (one or more) SAS AUTOCALL macros (okay, also SAS old macro statement definitions too) which are to be invoked within your SAS application.

when one adds a file to an EG-project one may choose to embed it in the project file (egp). the file is thus a part of the egp and not a file by itself. this is what I meant by embedded code.

what I want is something like
include thisfile.sas which is a part of filename.egp
or
include thisfile.sas which is part of current project
