Single quotes and double quote

[vinit_correia]

Hello,

what is the difference between single quote and double quote??

i know the one in macros..but is there any other difference between them????

Other than resolving macro variables not really in SAS. 

The he only other time it becomes useful is,to mask one or the other. 

Ie

var = " There's an apostrophe in my variable";

One other case - opposite of macro, ir you have a percent or ampersand you don't want SAS to interpret as a macro/macro variable then use single quotes.
