Hi,

I didn't get any reply for my above requirement for three days which helped me to found the solution by my own.

Filevar statement and TRANWRD statement satisifed my requirement.

Please find the code as below

filename yy'xo94.store';

filename xx'xo94.sas.modelid';

data ss;

infile xx;

input store $;

length ftrw $50;

ftrw ='xo94.control.parm('||trim(store)||')';

infile dummy filevar=ftrw sharebuffers end=done;

FILE DUMMY FILEVAR=FTRW;

do until(done);

input @1 sss $80.;

%INCLUDE YY; //Which contains TRANWRD stements

put sss;

end;

run;
