Subject:      Re: Building lists from macro vars

Mike, have a look at the example:

51   %macro a;
52     %let by=age;
53     %let by1=sex;
54     %let by2=height;
55     %do i=1 %to 2;
56       %let by=&by &&by&i;
57     %end;
58     proc sort data=sasuser.class;
59       by &by;
60     run;
61   %mend;
62   options mprint;
63   %a;
MPRINT(A):   proc sort data=sasuser.class;
MPRINT(A):   by age sex height;
MPRINT(A):   run;

Is that what you want?
