Hello,

I receive the following error when attempting to use the OPEN function after
modifying a ds in a DATA step even after the DATA step executes with both
RUN & QUIT statements. Any ideas? (BTW, the supplied statements are
contained in a larger macro).


ERROR: You cannot open WORK.TEMP1.DATA for output access with member-level
control

because WORK.TEMP1.DATA is in use by you in resource environment DATASTEP.



%DO I = *3* %TO &NVAR;

DATA TEMP1;

SET TEMP1;

RENAME %SYSFUNC(VARNAME(&DSID,&I)) =

&DS.&I;

WHERE SCHOOLID NOT CONTAINS 'ALL';

RUN; QUIT;

%END;

%LET DSID2 = %SYSFUNC(OPEN(TEMP1,I));

%DO I = *1* %TO &NVAR;

%LET VLIST = &VLIST %SYSFUNC(VARNAME(&DSID2,&I));

%END;
