I'm not sure what Information Maps are, the SASTRACE option affects SAS/ACCESS to relational DB products, or at least that's what I'm using it for. Thanks for your help thus far though. I really wish that OPTLOAD/OPTSAVE would've worked here. I hadn't heard of those previously so it's something to add to my toolkit in any case. Here's the code output you requested: 119 17 %LET SASTrace_Opt = %SYSFUNC(GETOPTION(SASTRACE));
120 18 %PUT &=SASTrace_Opt;
121 SASTRACE_OPT=,,t,dbs
122 19 OPTIONS SASTRACE=&SASTrace_Opt;

I've also tried the following (and many other permutations, dealing with quoting gives me a headache, so I generally just go for a brute-force approach to get it to work right), all of which result in the same error: %LET SASTrace_Opt = %STR(%')%SYSFUNC(GETOPTION(SASTRACE))%STR(%');
OPTIONS SASTRACE=&SASTrace_Opt
%LET SASTrace_Opt = %SYSFUNC(GETOPTION(SASTRACE));
