Is it possible with Proc Print to change the label of a one of the variable being printed to the &SYSDATE? I've been try to accomplish this but have had no success. Any ideas on how to change the varialbe name to the system date? Below is an example of what i'm attempting to do

PROC SORT DATA=ALL;
BY DESCENDING GBUSED;

PROC PRINT DATA=ALL NOOBS;
VAR HLQ GBUSED;
LABEL GBUSED='&SYSDATE';

PROC PRINT DATA=ALL NOOBS label;
VAR HLQ GBUSED;
LABEL GBUSED="&SYSDATE";


Use the label option and macros inside single quotes don't resolve.
