Macro for mailing on specific day doesn't work?

[SAS_Question]

 Hi Kurt,

Just to let you know: it works now... 

And I think it went wrong because when I used the program it sometime freezed and when I force close it, it doesn't email anymore... 

So I needed to restart the whole SAS-server before it can be used again. Very strange. But that clears the '*' before FILENAME in the macro output I guess... 🙂 

Now all good. Thanks for your time and efforts!

A process hanging with the pipe to the mailer open can cause the mailer to become unresponsive (it only has one input channel).

"Force closing" a SAS process from the client side should always be accompanied by a search for the server process (on the server), and if found, killing that process. Running cleanwork after is recommended, of course.

Interesting! Thanks for the tip about the SAS CLEANWORK utility. Very handy to know. Will dive into that!

Thanks again Kurt!
