Hi,
I need to check few symbols while applying PROPCASE on my data. Underscore is part of my symbols. When I included underscore in my code as O_NAM1 = PROPCASE(I_NAM1, " .<(+|&!$*);¬-/,%_`"), I got a warning "Apparent invocation of macro _ not resolved". How can I include underscore in my code? When I kept the underscore in single quotes, pgm considered single quote as a valid symbol and checked the data for single quote. I don't want to search data for single quote.
Thanks in advance!!
%_ would be a valid name for a macro. To fix the problem, just switch the order within your string: _% instead of %_

Or use single quotes to delimit the string.
