I have this SAS code which is not running, because in the where clause, my variables need to have single quotes around them and '&state.' causes an error.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
%macro linreg(state, var);
data data_&state_&var;
set final_rva_5;
where st_cd eq '&state.' and
variable eq '&var.';
x = _N_;
run;
%mend;
DATA _NULL_;
SET linreg_state_variable_peril;
CALL EXECUTE('%LINREG('||linreg_state||','||linreg_variable||','||linreg_peril||');');
RUN;
Macro variables won't resolve inside single quotes.
Why won't double quotes work in the query?
"&state."

"&state."
Works like a charm! Thanks Reeza.
Can I ask you one more question....
What should I be using for &peril._ULT_LR_R_UC?
If I call it with linreg(total), I want the code to be model total_ULT_LR_R_UC = x.
%macro linreg(peril);
ods output 'Fit Statistics'=fit_statistics
'Solution'=ParameterEstimates;
proc glm data=linreg2_data;
model &peril._ULT_LR_R_UC = x;
weight &peril._EARNED_UC_PREMIUM;
run; quit;
ods output close;
%mend;
Thanks!!!!
I thought that would be it.
&peril._ULT_LR_R_UC
Thanks Reeza!!
It's working perfectly now
