macro quoting issue

[karnum]

Hello,

I think I have forgotten something basic. I am trying to loop through my macro code to create ten datasets. Below is my code. When I run it as is it runs fine but when I uncomment to run the macro code block then I get the missing quote error.

I am not sure how quotes work but I think SAS is adding a double quote somewhere and causing this macro to not work.

Any help appreciated. I have been manually running this 10 times )-:

Thanks!

You are missing a %MEND statement for your macro:

*%mend run_partition;

Hello,

I am wondering now why it is not looping through 0 through 9 when I open up this macro statement:

%do ct=0 %to 9;

Comment or remove this statement:

%let ct = 5;
