This migt be little bit strange question. I wonder is there any way we could relate SAS data set to program it created (which SAS data set was created by which program? The reason I am asking I have so many permanent sas data sets and I want to which sas program created the respective data sets.
If the program is saved before it is executed you can use the sas automatic variable to put a label on the data set with that information:
data mydata (label="%sysget(SAS_EXECFILEPATH)");
/* other code*/
run;
After creation likely not very easy. The sas Source program has to be saved before use though.
