put dates in titles

[mmea]

Hi 

I would like to put the current date in one title 

currentdate +1 in the next title

currentdate+2 in the third title

I tried this

but it do not work;

%let day = %sysfunc(putn("&sysdate"d, ddmmyy10.));
%let day = &day;


title height=15pt color=Black  'TEST  &day &sysdate.';

title2 j=l color=gray  'TEST &day &sysdate+1 ';


proc report ..............

See if you can use this as a template 🙂

%let day1 = %sysfunc(putn(%sysfunc(today())    , ddmmyy10.));
%let day2 = %sysfunc(putn(%sysfunc(today()) + 1, ddmmyy10.));
%let day3 = %sysfunc(putn(%sysfunc(today()) + 2, ddmmyy10.));

%put &day1. &day2. &day3.;

title  "&day1.";
title2 "&day2.";
title3 "&day3.";

proc report data=sashelp.class;
run;

title;

I'm guessing there is a question here?

Remember to put macro variables in double quotation marks. Macro variables do not resolve in single quotation marks 🙂

[Astounding]

Use double quotes, not single quotes. Macro variable references in single quotes will not be resolved.
