Subject:      Re: migrating SAS8 to SAS9 - compiled macro
Comments: To: ulagappan@GMAIL.COM

Hi Ulag,

You need the source code. Maybe vs. 8 compiled macros will work under vs. 9,
I don't know, try it. If you don't have source code it is rather difficult
if not virtually impossible to reverse engineer the compiled code. Have a
look in the archives and search for 'compiled macro'.

Regards - Jim.
