Hi,
As there is no macro variable with name C, so &C is not getting resolved
and so you get the message. You just replace double quotes with single
quotes, it should work...

Subject: mask
One var has character values such S&C, F&B and so on.
So when code like this
"
if var in ("S&C") then brother =1; else brother =0;"
is executed, SAS said macro can not be resolved. Of course.
I know we can mask &, as I learned from SAS training course. Can
somebody provide a quick tip? I can not find my example quickly.
Thanks.
PD
