Having read this question for a third time, I'm still stumped. Why is this code neat and easy to read:
create table Test2 as
select
1 as A
,2 as B
&AA. ,3 as C &BB.
from Test
;quit;
Yet this code isn't?
create table Test2 as
select
1 as A
,2 as B
%AA ,3 as C %BB
from Test
;quit;
Or even better yet:
create table Test2 as
select
1 as A
,2 as B
%Debt3m ,3 as C %latest_wod
from Test
;quit;
What am I missing?
