We have an application that needs to read in a text file (SAS Source Code)
as a string, does text substitution with it, and runs a SAS process with
this string as a parameter. The problem is that the SAS source code has some
double quotes in it, and some of the substitutions are full file paths, with
the slashes.
So what we're feeding into the SAS processor is \"text\" instead of "text"
and C:\\Folder\\File.txt instead of C:\Folder\File.
Is there a way to get the string values to work as the verbatim literals do?
Without the escape characters? If there is, then I'm not using the correct
keywords to search on, because I can't find it.
Thanks in advance.
