Hi, I'm using EG 5.1 . I've written a few macros, each with several parameters. Now, when I calll the macros from different programs I find I don't verbatim remember the parameters for each macro and their position. I noticed that in the program where I created the macros, I could insert comments which appear as pop-up help text when the macro is invoked. But outside that particular program that help does not appear. E.g in below macro the text "libname without quotes e.g. source" appears as a pop-up when the macro is invoked, BUT only in the same program where the macro is written. If I invoke it from a different program in the same project, then no pop-up appears. %macro dir (libname /*libname without quotes e.g. source*/);
TITLE 'Directory listing for library ' %upcase("&libname") ;
PROC SQL;
select libname ,
memname,
memlabel,
nobs,
nvar,
modate
FROM DICTIONARY.TABLES
WHERE LIBNAME = %upcase( "&libname" )
ORDER BY modate desc;
QUIT
;
TITLE;
%mend dir; Any ideas apprecited.
