Solved: Set options statement to default

Hi forum,

I have used the options statement like below and trying to turn the option to default.
Options validvarname=upcase;

if it is just this option that you want to reset, the default setting is:

OPTIONS VALIDVARNAME = V7

Just that option or all options?

Sharathr · Posted 11-15-2019 06:52 AM

I would like to reset the specific option alone

The default is

options validvarname=v7;

You can read that in the Doc

In a data step, you can use the function getOption to retrieve the initial value of an option, see https://documentation.sas.com/?cdcId=pgmsascdc&cdcVersion=9.4_3.4&docsetId=lefunctionsref&docsetTarg... for details.
