Hi all --

Does anyone know if there is any way to save the current title in a
macro variable?

eg. to allow smth like this:

%macro printsomething(x);
%let oldtitle=&currenttitle;
title "&x";
* ... print something... ;
title "&oldtitle";
%mend;

Thanks!!

proc sql noprint;
select trim(text) into :title1-:title10
from dictionary.titles where type='T'
;
quit;

You can also use the view SASHELP.VTITLE if you do not want to use
PROC SQL.
