follow that route a little further - and use the lvarlevel function
>memlist = makelist() ;
>id=open('sashelp.vmember') ;
>call set(id) ;
rc = where(id, 'libname = || quote( upcase( lib )) ||
' & memtype in( "DATA", "VIEW") );
n_levl = 0;
rc = lvarlevel( id, 'memname', n_levl, memlist ) ;
>rc=close(id) ;
seems like the lvarlevel function was invented for this task ..
