/* Sample SAS Program "include.sas" */

/* Example of using %INCLUDE statement */
/* %INLUDE statement brings SAS programming statements, data lines, or both, 
  into a current SAS program. For example, if you use a set of global statements
  very frequently, you can create a text file with those SAS statements and
  use a %INCLUDE statement to call them in your program. 
  Below is an example. */
