%macro two(first=,second=); title "&first &second" ; proc freq data=hsurvey2.hsa05_adult_public; table year; run; %mend two; %two(first=this is a long string, second=and so is this); It turns out that this works fine. The problem in my code is something else entirely. I'll try to track that down.

I want to pass two long strings into a sas macro, like this: %some_macro(first=this is quite a long string, two=and so is this); I can define macros where I pass an argument like the first, but if I have two arguments like this it seems SAS gets confused, and I get errors about strings being 262 characters or longer. I suspect I should be using some sort of quoting or something, but I'm not sure exactly what to use. Any ideas? Mark
