Hi SAS users,
i need some help in going to last word which is after last slash (/) and get word "file" ( scan and find the first word after first underscore(_)
currently i am printing all words.
%let filenm=/path1/div1/test1/list1/file_client_case1;
data run_type;
length type $30;
do i=1 to countw("&filenm.","/");
type=scan("&filenm.",i,"/");
output;
end;
run;
Thanks,
Ana
