Hi,
Could you please let me know how to pass parms to SAS, when SAS is called by a REXX program.
I use the below code to call SAS from REXX,
| Code: |
ADDRESS TSO "ALTLIB ACTIVATE APPL(CLIST) DA('WELLS.CLIST.CEXEC')"
"%SAS INPUT('''WELLS.SAS.PROG''') LOG('''WELLS.SAS.LOG''')"
|
The PDS WELLS.CLIST.CEXEC contains a member named SAS.
And this memeber is the standard CLIST supplied by SAS to invoke SAS from REXX or CLIST.
The program inside WELLS.SAS.PROG gets executed fine, but don't know how to pass parms to the program. Please help.
Thanks & Regards, |

| Whilst waiting for a reply I'd not be able to resist just having a whack at PARM(...) |

Hello Bill,
I did try tagging the PARM keyword before posting,
Tried,
| Code: |
"%SAS INPUT('''WELLS.SORTIN''') ,
LOG('''WELLS.SAS.LOG''') PARM('''SYSPARM="HELLO"''')"
|
The error was:
| Code: |
IKJ56701I MISSING SPACE VALUE AND IF ANY, INCREMENT VALUE+
IKJ56716I EXTRANEOUS INFORMATION WAS IGNORED: 'SYSPARM=HELLO'
IKJ56701I MISSING NUMBER OF RECORDS |
The same error appeared for other variations of argument inside PARM().
The "SAS companion ZOS" has some information about SASPARM= PGMPARM= but they sound greek and latin to me :S
Regards, |

This code worked for me:
| Code: |
/* REXX */
"SAS INPUT(sas) OPT('SYSPARM=HELLO')"
Exit 0
|
| Code: |
%PUT &SYSPARM;
RUN;

Thanks Kevin,
Works Great!!
Could you please let me know the link which has information on the statement, or is it based on your earlier experiences.
(can't find it on the companion for ZOS) |
