Dataset Label

rakeshvvv — Thu, 30 Oct 2014 19:24:07 GMT

Hi,

I have dataset with 10 variables. One of the variables represents the dataset LABEL. I would like to know if there is way to LABEL the dataset based on the variable value.

Thanks

Not sure what your data looks like and what you exactly want, the following code may or may not hit the nail:

data test;

set sashelp.orsales(obs=1);

run;

DATA _NULL_;

set test;

call symputx('dlabel', product_group);

stop;

run;

proc datasets lib=work;

modify test (label="&DLABEL");

quit;

proc sql;

select MEMlabel from dictionary.tables where LIBNAME='WORK' AND MEMNAME='TEST';

QUIT;
