Thanks Ian,

I concur with your example and preference.  Not having seen such a prolific
use of "dots", I found reviewing this set of SAS macro code this past week
rathering distracting, and then I saw another program doing the same
thing "using dots" frequently and not consistently - and I wondered if I
missed something coming down the road in future versions of SAS.

Thanks for taking the time to respond.
