Hola Nat,
Actually my longest line is about 180 characters. I did LRECL=256 at the time, because I knew the length was longer than 80 but shorter than 256. I had transferred the file from UNIX.
Hasta,
Pablo

If I read your posting correctly, you have code that is either 72 or 80
bytes long but is stored in a file with an lrecl of 256. Hence, everything
from 73 or 81 to 256 is blank. I suggest that you include
options s=72 ;
which tells SAS that the programs lines are the first 72 bytes of the input
line. Of course, if you did type in the first 80 columns, you would say
S=80 .
Now, why are you storing them in a file with an lrecl of 256. Why not
allocate a partitioned data set with an lrecl of 80 and your problems will
be taken automatically.

Hola All,
I have a temporary solution.
I have now 2 programs. One program only contains one line which %INCLUDE
the other program.
The formatting now looks normal.
Seems I have more control over source2 vs source.
Still would like an explanation and a non %INCLUDE solution.
Hasta,
Pablo

Hola All,
Haven't used mainframe SAS in 10+ years. I sent over a UNIX program to
the mainframe. It is sitting in a file with LRECL=256 RECFM=FB.
When I run a BATCH job using //SYSIN DD xxxxxx.xxxxxx.xxxxxx,disp=shr
where xxxxxxx.xxxxxxx.xxxxxx is my file, The log wraps all normal SAS
statements at 80 and thus I get 4+ lines for every single line of code.
I have tried s=256,s2=256,ls=256, S2=0 -- Seperately or in combination.
The MACROS generated with appropriate options show up normally in the log.
I have also tried sending the LOG seperately to HOLD queue with FILENAME
UNIT=PRINTER.
Unfortunately, I am stuck with SAS 8.00. I do not know if this issue is a
bug or me not using the right OPTION(S).
Hasta,
Pablo
