Subject:   Re: Set multiple datasets

all of the same structure? In that case, you should think about the option open=defer. If you don't want to change the numbers, you could use a macro:

%macro set; data a; set %do i=0 %to 99; a_&i open=defer %end; ; run; %mend; %set;

If you don't (or cannot) use the open=defer option, 100 datasets will take much memory and time, because they all are opened at the same time.
