I have a preassigned library Lib1.  

Libname Lib1 "C:\MyDevWork\folder\";

 

In the code, library Lib2 being used a lot. Lib2 is same as Lib1, One way of creating Lib2 is use the path of Lib1 in libname statement. 

 

I want to know -"Is there any way I can create Libname for Lib2 using Lib1 without worrying the path of Lib1?"
