When I ran this macro code in EG 5.1,encountered by error as follows.SAS is installed in UNIX server and the /data/PPM is directory where SAS resides.

Ideally I want this code to run, when file is not availble on sever and if there are files it should produce a dataset as mentioned in macros.

16         %let appfile =<None>;

17 

18         %macro do_work(infilename);

19         %if "&infilename" ne "<NONE>" %then %do;

20        

21         proc import datafile="/data/PPM/&infilename." out=appfile_cass dbms=CSV replace;

22              guessingrows=30000;

23         run;

24        

25         data want;

26         set appfile_cass;

27         run;

28        

29         %end;

30         %mend;

31        

32         %do_work(&appfile);

MLOGIC(DO_WORK):  Beginning execution.

MLOGIC(DO_WORK):  Parameter INFILENAME has value <None>

MLOGIC(DO_WORK):  %IF condition "&infilename" ne "<NONE>" is TRUE

MPRINT(DO_WORK):   proc import datafile="/data/PPM/<None>" out=appfile_cass dbms=CSV replace;

MPRINT(DO_WORK):   ADLM;

MPRINT(DO_WORK):   guessingrows=30000;

MPRINT(DO_WORK):   run;

NOTE: Unable to open parameter catalog: SASUSER.PARMS.PARMS.SLIST in update mode. Temporary parameter values will be saved to

WORK.PARMS.PARMS.SLIST.

ERROR: Physical file does not exist, /data/PPM/<None>.

Can someone guide me to achieve this task?

Thanks for any help provided.

check the case of the parameter:

%let appfile =<None>;

%if "&infilename" ne "<NONE>" %then %do;
