MAPS=location-of-maps

location-of-maps: specifies a libref, a valid UNIX pathname, or an environment variable associated with a pathname. Do not use a specific filename.

You can reassign the MAPS libref, but you cannot clear it.

Map files might have to be uncompressed before they are used. Use the CONTENTS statement in the DATASETS procedure to determine whether they are compressed.
