Re: How do I fix ODS PDF error in JCL

LionelT — Mon, 26 Oct 2020 20:41:06 GMT

Hi. Do you have the ability to review the full output from your process? Or can you provide the full JCL you are using? As a small guide, when I generate PDF's in the IBM Z/os environment I use the following DD....

//PDFFILE DD DSN=FIPP.I.DAILY.NAG,
// DISP=(,DELETE,DELETE),
// SPACE=(TRK,(100,10),RLSE)

Re: A Question on scan / or some function to

Sorry about that...missed the 'Pitney' piece....or should I say 'Pitney' I didn't read the whole note!

SU1, SU2 and SU3 after the first piece of code would now contain the desired comments other than the extra 'Pitney :' at the start.

So, we need to substr starting at the position afer the ':' to the end of hte string. The end piece would be SU1 = Substr(SU1, startinglocationtobedetermined, length(SU1)-Startinglocationtobedetermined) ;

For startinglocationtobedetermined insert the following.

Indexc(SU1,':')+1

I believe

SU1 =Scan(Comment,1,';') ;

SU2 =Scan(Comment,2,';') ;

SU3 =Scan(Comment,3,';') ;

Of course, I have not checked the syntax completely, so some tweaking may be required.

Re: Date difference

Assuming Date1 and Date2 are SAS dates would the following not work?

If (Date1 - date2) eq 200 then Do ;

end ;

For the months and years the Intck function woudl work as shown by stat@sas. Of course, we have not yet talked about 'alignment' on months and years!
