Dave,

What you want to do can be done with %include.

        Subject:        Can a SAS program call another SAS program


People,
I am writing a report that counts the number of widgets produced by
partners.   I have a small routine that finds the partners id number and
name.  Obviously I could copy this code into my program and execute it.  I
was wondering if there was a more elegant way of "Calling" a SAS program
from within a SAS program.   I am running SAS 8.1 in windows.
Thanks
Dave

Can also be done using a macro (would allow you to pass parameters to the
subroutine),
or with SAS/Connect (would allow parallel processing).
