Hallo,

I am looking for an easy way to assign real values coded as PC internal hexadecimal represantations. Similar as

r=c059000000000000x; /* IEEE representation of -100 */ put r=; /* has to produce -100 - but doesn't */

another example

r=4057400000000000x; /* IEEE coded 93 */

Obviously all hexadecimal constants will be interpreted by SAS as integers. This causes here an unrequested transformation. Please can anybody tell me how to avoid this converting? Thank you very much for any hints.

Mit freundlichen Gruessen

Ihr Wolf F. Lesener
