Footnote : the macro variable is not resolved

[SASdevAnneMarie]

Hello Experts,

I create the document with odsout obj();

In my footnote I have :

        footnote6 J=left font =Arial  HEIGHT=7pt  '^{style[leftmargin=.6in bottommargin=0.5in]FASV_&Code._v2022042501}'; 

The macro variable &Code. is resolved in the document, but in foot note I have this :

How to appear the macrovariable in footnote ?

Thank you !

Use code that actually attempts to resolve the macro variable.

The macro processor ignores the text inside of strings that are bounded on the outside by single quotes.

If you want the macro processor to process the footnote text then use double quote characters instead.

footnote6 J=left font =Arial  HEIGHT=7pt  "^{style[leftmargin=.6in bottommargin=0.5in]FASV_&Code._v2022042501}";
