I am trying to create a data file via syntax editor. I know this can be done using BEGIN DATA- END DATA command. I am curious to know how we can call macro within BEGIN DATA - END DATA.
DEFINE Drivers ( )
Driver1 Driver2 Driver3 Driver4
!ENDDEFINE .
DATA LIST FREE / Name (A50).
BEGIN DATA.
CALL MACRO HERE
END DATA.
Instead of typing category names within BEGIN DATA- END DATA, i would prefer typing within DEFINE-END DEFINE.
Let me build you the background. I want an user to input category names and paths at the beginning of the syntax. They just need to run syntax and reports will be generated automatically. The purpose is to make syntax user friendly.
Please suggest if any workaround. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Please reply to the list and not to my personal email.
