Hi,

 

Actually, I need this program to be defined as a macro.

I mean, we have more than hundreds of variables to be defined sequentially in a macro.

There is an example in the below which shows a basic process.

If I can define these process with a loop, then I will be succeed in other outputs.

 

So, how can I write this program to define each value as a macro and make it change in each step with a loop process?

 

Thanks & Regards,

Can

data Table1;
length ID $ 3;
input ID;
datalines;Q1
Q1_
Q2
Q2_
Q3
Q3_;
run;

data _null_;	set Table1;	call symput(ID,put(ID,3.));run;Data Table2;Variable="&ID";run
