How often do you use

%put NOTE: mvarName=&mvarName;

in your SAS code to write out the name and contents of a macro variable?

 

Since SAS version 9.3, there is a new handy syntax feature that allows you to just do this with less typing.You simple write it as: 

%put NOTE: &=mvarName;

 

For example:

%put NOTE: &=sysscpl &=sysvlong;

NOTE: SYSSCPL=X64_7PRO SYSVLONG=9.03.01M2P081512
