SAS macro numeric values

[SASAna]

Need help !

I am getting error while running query and %put is not printing the values.

I am building some counts and loading into Oracle tables' numeric fields.

PROC SQL noprint;

Create Table output_Stats as
Select count(distinct(CLMS)),
count(CLMS),
count(distinct(MBRS)),
count(distinct(PROVS)),
sum(DOLLARS)
into
:&run_type._CLM_COUNT,
:&run_type._CLMS_COUNT,
:&run_type._MEM_COUNT,
:&run_type._PROV_COUNT,
:&run_type._DOLLARS
from output_x;
Quit;

%put &=&&run_type._CLM_COUNT &=&&run_type._CLMS_COUNT &=&&run_type._MEM_COUNT &=&&run_type._PROV _COUNT &=&&run_type._DOLLARS;

/* Note: Oracle table fields are numeric attributes */

%If &run_type = R %then
%do;
proc sql noprint;
update <Oracle_table>
set CLM_CNT = INPUT(&&run_type._CLM_COUNT.,4.) ,    /* i tried loading direct, but it was telling char error */
CLMS_CNT   = INPUT(&&run_type._CLM_LINE_COUNT.,4.) ,
MEM_CNT = INPUT(&&run_type._MEMBER_COUNT.,4.) ,
PROV_CNT  = INPUT(&&run_type._PROVIDER_COUNT.,4.)
where <condition>
;
Quit;
%end;

What error do you get?

Please show us the entire LOG file for this code (not just the error messages) by clicking on the {i} icon, and then pasting the log into the window that appears. Do not paste the log directly into your reply, use the {i} icon.

1)   %put is not printing the numbers.

2) log of error -

30303                      proc sql noprint;         update <table>         set 
CLM_CNT   =
30303    ! INPUT(&&run_type._CLM_COUNT.,4.) ,             
CLMS_CNT = INPUT(&&run_type._CLM_LINE_COUNT.,4.) ,
                                       _
                                       22
30303    !     MEMBER_CNT
ERROR 22-322: Syntax error, expecting one of the following: a name, *.  

SYMBOLGEN:  && resolves to &.

&&RUN_TYPE is never set to a value.

[SASAna]

MLOGIC(code):  %IF condition &run_type  =  R is TRUE

run_type is resolving correctly.I pasted log.

put statements are coming as below, actual values are not printing

&=R_CLM_COUNT &=R_CLMS_COUNT &=R_MEM_COUNT &=R_PROV_COUNT &=R_DOLLARS

[PaigeMiller]

Can you show us the entire log, not just the area of the code where the error appears?

Have you tried using 3 ampersands ('&&&') for example:

CLMS_CNT = INPUT(&&&run_type._CLM_LINE_COUNT.,4.)

As you want run_type to resolve first then the whole macro variable needs to be resolved.
