Hi I'm using Proc datasets moving option to moving data from one library to another if datasets not available I need to capture Warning/error from code. Same &syserr macro working in data step but not working in proc datasets. pls advise me how to capture error.
/*1-WORKING*/
data NULL;
set doesnotexist;
run;
%put &syserr;
/*2-NOT WORKING*/
PROC DATASETS;
COPY IN=Source OUT=Target MOVE MEMTYPE=DATA;
RUN;
%put &syserr;
SYSERR is reset at step boundaries.
Proc Datasets is an interactive procedure and needs a quit statement.
PROC DATASETS;
COPY IN=Source OUT=Target MOVE MEMTYPE=DATA;
RUN;quit;
%put &syserr;
13 PROC DATASETS;

# Name Type Size Last Modified
1 NULL DATA 5120 13-Apr-14 09:30:41 PM
14 COPY IN=Source OUT=Target MOVE MEMTYPE=DATA;
15 RUN;
ERROR: Libname SOURCE is not assigned.
NOTE: Statements not processed because of errors noted above.
15 ! quit;
NOTE: The SAS System stopped processing this step because of errors.

Thanks Reeza...it's working...:)
