Subject:      Call Execute

Hi!

  I have a question on how to distinguish between SAS statement and macro
language element.  Specifically I want to know when CALL EXECUTE is
executed at the next DATA step boundary and when it is executely
immediately as described in help window:

"resolves its argument and executes the resolved value at the next step
boundary (if the value is a SAS statement) or immediately (if the value is
a macro language element)."

  Thanks in advance.
