Ok this is where I am at now. I have a table with the last run date on its own, being the 15th of Feb 2017. This is node 1. Node 2 contains the following, so I want to run a test if the criteria matches which is should. %let continue=no; data temp1; set &_INPUT1; if BILLING_RUN_DT = '15Feb2017'd then do; call symput('continue','yes'); stop; end; run; Then node 3 does the processing of the rest of the DI job which has a where clause of &continue=yes This still doens't seem to be executing from node 3 with any data even though I have data that matches to the 15th of Feb so the condition should be yes. Has anyone any ideas at this point? Thanks Aidan
