I am using VERSION 7.15. I set a string without quotation mark around, I wonder How to convert the string into a string that have quotation mark around and could be as a value, not a column name
it is worked when directly add the quotation mark around;
%let string = 'test';
data test_table;
x =&string;
y = 5;
run;
I want to adjust the test into 'test' so that I am able to run the below code.
%let string = test;
/*(some code in here to change the value test from column name to string value)*/
data test_table;
x =&string;
y = 5;
run;
Thanks!
