You
can make macros accessible to your SAS session or program by using
the autocall facility to search predefined source libraries for macro
definitions. These predefined source libraries are known as autocall
libraries. You can store your macro definitions permanently in an
autocall library, and you can set up multiple autocall libraries.
When you use this approach,
you do not need to compile the macro in order to make it available
for execution. That is, if the macro definition is stored in an autocall
library, then you do not need to submit or include the macro definition
before you submit a call to the macro.
Suppose you have stored a file that contains a macro definition in your autocall library. When ...
