Quoting two macro variables in macro code

[Sejin]

I am using two macro variables to do looping.

I wrote something like

now&&a&i&&b&j._name

and I wanted it to be processed like

now&&a&i&&b&j._name

->

now&a1&b1._name

->

now10002000_name

However, sas doens't give me the result I want to have.

Is there anybody who could give me little help on solving this problem?

Thanks!
