Hi,

Is there any way to get the value assigned to title statements. Say, I am including a program file with libnames, titles assigned.I have no control of the program file.I just include it. In the new program that I am writing, I want to determine programatically, the titles assigned and put them into macro variables.Does SAS store titles/footnotes in any system variables or can we get in in any dictionary or sashelp table?

Thanks,
Eguva
 
Hi equva,
Any time you want that sort of info, those V views are pretty good.
You can also access them directly as "DICTIONARY.TITLE". To get a list of all available ones use
Code:
proc sql;
  select *
  from dictionary.dictionaries
  ;
quit;
Enjoy.
