Hi all,

I am running the following code with SAS 8.1 on Solaris:

proc sql; create table two as select 16000 as start_date, 17000 as end_date, 1 as ORDERVAR, '' as CTRYCODE, a.CURRENCY as CURRENCY, a.CURRENCY_FROM as CURRENCY_FROM, '' as MATURITY, '' as MATURITY_UND, . as DELTA, '' as RATING, '' as INDUSTRY, '' as LABEL, '' as INSTRUMENT, '' as COMMODITY, '' as DESCRIPTION, 1 as INITIAL_ACTIVE, today() as C READATE, today() as MODDATE from one as A ; quit;

Unfortunately, the long select statement gets "cut" after 256 characters. Which option should I set to change that ?

Thanks,

Janis Jekabsons
