I have some code I run every week that updates a series of datasets.  We
are actively collecting data and once a week the data are downloaded and
I update the SAS datasets.

It would be great if I could just tell SAS what the new date code to
look for.  As is I open the program, change the macro variable and then
run code.

Is there a way to set a macro variable on the line command to run SAS in
batch mode?
