I wanted to remove closing brackets from below macro variable.
%LET x = )AL);
Final result should be as ...
%put RESULT = &x.;
RESULT = AL
Hi abhinayingole,
You can do it as follows:
%LET X = )AL);
%put &=X;
data _null_;
call symputx('RESULT', compress("&X",')'));
run;
%put &=RESULT;
In the LOG you will get:
X=)AL) RESULT=AL
Hope this helps.
yes, it worked . Thanks
@abhinayingole Please don't post the same question twice.
