That code runs fine.  But the first two values are not email addresses.

How are you actually trying to use it?  What error message are you getting.

You should use   %unquote(&a)   to unmask special character.

Hi,

If you are adding the %put to your filename statement.. Would the Semi colon not end the filename statement?

I think if you are trying to send the mail to all three ids then you should have a space instead of semicolon.

%let a=%str("ak.gmail.com" "lkp.gmai.com" "rk@gmail.com");

%put &a;
