- system-option
-
can be CMPLIB, FMTSEARCH, MAPS, SASAUTOS, or SASSCRIPT.
- argument
-
specifies a new value that you want to append to the current
value of system-option.
argument can be any value that could be
specified for system-option if system-option is set using the OPTIONS
statement.
If you specify a new value for the CMPLIB=, FMTSEARCH=,
MAPS=, SASAUTOS=, or SASSCRIPT= system options, the new value replaces the
value of the option. Instead of replacing the value, you can use the APPEND=
system option to append a new value to the current value of the option.
The APPEND= system option adds a new value to the end
of the current value of the CMPLIB=, FMTSEARCH=, MAPS=, SASAUTOS=, or SASSCRIPT=
system options. The INSERT= system option adds a new value as the first value
of one of these system options.
The following table shows the results of adding a value to the end of
the FMTSEARCH= option value:
|
Current FMTSEARCH= Value |
Value of APPEND= System Option |
New FMTSEARCH= Value |
