Macro to Run Programs in Sequence

Posted 09-26-2011 07:08 AM (2432 views)

hello!

I would like some help on running a macro to run programs in an ordered sequence. So for example; the first program to run would be to run the date macro, the second program would run import file A and so on. Can someone give me an idea on how to do this?

Thank you for your input.

I suggest you take a look at the %INCLUDE statement:

SAS statements.....

%include "datemacro.sas";

%include "importfile.sas";

More SAS statements.....
