Hi all, I have a code that was working fine before migrating to sas 9.4. After migration the code is giving error regarding the macro size. PROC SQL ; SELECT cats("'",_fk,"'") INTO :string1 SEPERATED BY "," FROM referral_lst; QUIT; ERROR: The length of the value of the macro variable STRING1 (65540) exceeds the maximum length (65534). The value has been truncated to 65534 characters. I managed to sort this issue by: proc sort data=referral_lst; by _fk ; run; data _null_; length mvarlist value_list $32000 mvar $32; retain mvarlist; varnum+1; do until(length(value_list)>30000 or eof); set referral_lst end=eof; by _fk ; if first._fk then value_list=cats(',',value_list,quote(trim(_fk),"'")); end; mvar=cats('_fk_list',varnum); call symputx(mvar,value_list); mvarlist=cats(',',mvarlist,'&'||mvar); if eof then call symputx('_fk_list',mvarlist); run; now I'm using this macro in a different part of the code: select distinct from ( SELECT SUB_KEY, IDENTIFIER, VERSION FROM _SUBMISSIONS WHERE src_end_ts = DATE'9999-12-31' and identifier in (&_fk_list.) ) SUB Now I receive this error: ERROR: The text expression length (66815) exceeds maximum length (65534). The text expression has been truncated to 65534 characters. Appreciate your help!
