Hi All,

 

I am trying reading  the total of  10 SAS  program (.sas files) and storing entire 10  SAS program codes in the dataset using option filename statement, and finally filtering the words based some criteria and I am able to do that, i  getting output result as filter word,  but here problem is i need to get the full path name with whose filtered word condition is satisfied.

 

code:

filename rd

('C:\Users\rakes\Documents\My SAS Files\sas_practice\program_2.sas' ,

'C:\Users\rakes\Documents\My SAS Files\sas_practice\program_3.sas' ,

'C:\Users\rakes\Documents\My SAS Files\sas_practice\program_4.sas' ,

                like so on----

);

 

data temp;
infile rd truncover;
input rec $150.;

if index(lowcase(rec), "metafix") ne 0 then output;
run;

 

Result:

rec - column name

---

metafix

metafix is good

 

But i need as

Actual result

-------------
