Read JMP variable value in SAS?<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />Currently I've written some SAS codes in enterprise guide (SAS ver: 9.3), and I also want to combine functions in JMP then read out JMP variable value in SAS.
Is there any fast way to read JMP variable from SAS?
So far I think I can call JMP script to execute from SAS, then put variable in a JMP / SAS table. And finally use SAS to import the table to get the value.
But I thought it contains too much procedures and file processing...so I'm searching if other better way for it.
Also I checked JMP scripting guide "Working with SAS" chapter, however, I guess it's just mentioned about how to use SAS capability within JSL.
Please also correct me if my guess is wrong.
Thanks all for your reading!
Re: Read JMP variable value in SAS?Take a look at the DeclareMacros() option on the SAS Submit() statement.
It will automatically create a SAS macro variable with the same name and value as a JSL variable.

Re: Read JMP variable value in SAS?I am not aware of a method where a JMP memory variable can be made available for a direct read into SAS, however, an alternative to placing a value into a JMP data table and then reading it into SAS, in JMP you could easily create a text file that contains SAS code, and then simply do a %include in SAS to populate those values.
x=32; // hypothetical JMP value you want to transfer to SAS
save text file("C:\file.txt","%let x="||char(eval(x))||';");
then in your SAS program, just use a %include statement to include the file you just created.
