Re: name of the open program






I think you're confusing 'running' with 'saved'.  SAS doesn't have a
concept of 'running' really, but rather 'submitted statements' (you could
say it is 'running' when statements are being processed, but that clearly
does not apply here).  Unless you're working in EG, perhaps, only because
I
don't know much about EG.  By default if you submit that code, you are
'running' a program, and submitting that let statement counts.

If I open SAS, and have two editor windows open, one with a saved program,
and one with a new editor window ("Untitled 1"), adding the let statement
(and a %put statement) will give me the name of the saved program if it's
added to that saved program, and will return null string if it's in
Untitled 1, both of which are the expected results.
