Hi,
Is it possible to a use a micro variable create from AAA data set by using call symput and call that macro with in AAA data set ? Please explain with example .
Thanks in advance ,

Hi Ashwini,
you cannot use the variable in same data step
Actually you can, using the symget function. But it's an odd operation...
Would you post a code sample showing how?
Here you go:
data test;
*set AAA;
var = 1;
call symput('var', var);
var2 = symget('var');
run;
