Need help in calculating difference in time between two macro variables. Here is what i have: %let curr_datetime = 22NOV2024:09:23:33; %let modate = 22NOV2024:05:55:55; %macro time_diff(curr_datetime, modate); proc sql noprint; select intck('second', &modate, &curr_datetime) into :time_diff from sashelp.vcalendar; quit; %put The time difference is &time_diff seconds; %mend time_diff; %time_diff(&curr_datetime.,&modate.); Please advise. Thank You ... View more

Hello,   I have issue in this code, not sure why it is not working: All that I am trying to do is: From a bunch of directories in a folder, I am just selecting 1 of them. That 1 value needs to be used in the libname statement. If I make that as %global then it would work. But don't think that is a good practice.
