我们有一个实用程序宏，它可能是我们最常用的代码之一，可以为我们执行此操作。它类似于@user667489 提供的代码，但包含一些不错的功能，包括错误捕获、允许字符和数字变量、允许您指定分隔符、引号、引号字符、数据集过滤器等......
我们只是将这个宏放在我们的自动调用库中，以便我们所有的程序都可以使用它。运行宏的一些示例：
示例 1 - 默认行为：
%put %variable_to_macvar(var=x, ds=samplex);
结果 1：
one,two,three
由于默认分隔符是逗号，所以输出不是很理想，不过这很容易更改...
示例 2 - 指定使用空格字符作为分隔符：
%put %ds2list(iDs=samplex, iField=x, iDelimiter=%str( ));
结果 2：
one two three
示例 3 - 引用和示例用法
data names;
input name $;
datalines;
John
Jim
Frankie
;
run;
%put %ds2list(iDs=names, iField=name, iQuote=1);
proc sql noprint;
create table xx as
select *
from sashelp.class
where name in (%ds2list(iDs=names, iField=name, iQuote=1))
;
quit;
结果 3：
以下内容打印到日志中：
'John','Jim','Frankie'
请注意，我们甚至不需要将结果保存到宏变量中即可在 SQL 语句中使用它！甜甜的！这同样适用于 SQL 直通查询，以及您可以抛出的任何其他数据步骤或 proc 语句。在上面的示例中，返回单行，因为 'John' 是找到的唯一匹配项...
无论如何，这就是我们的解决方案……已经使用了 10 年以上，对我来说效果很好。这是宏：
/***************************************************************************
** PROGRAM: MACRO.DS2LIST.SAS
**
** UTILITY PROGRAM THAT DETECTS RETURNS A LIST OF FIELD VALUES FROM A
** DATASET IN DELIMITED FORMAT.
**
** PARAMETERS:
** iDs : THE LIBNAME.DATASET NAME THAT YOU WANT TO CHECK.
** iField : THE FIELD THAT CONTAINS THE VALUES YOU WANT RETURNED IN A
** DELIMITED FORMAT.
** iDelimiter: DEFAULT IS A COMMA. THE DELIMITER TO USE FOR THE RETURNED LIST.
** iDsOptions: ANY STANDARD DATASET OPTIONS THAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO APPLY SUCH
** AS A WHERE STATEMENT.
** iQuote : (0=NO,1=YES). DEFAULT=0/NO. DETERMINES WHETHER THE RETURNED
** LIST IS QUOTED OR NOT.
** iQuoteChar: (SINGLE,DOUBLE) DEFAULT=SINGLE. SPECIFIES WHETHER SINGLE
** OR DOUBLE QUOTES ARE USED WHEN QUOTING THE RETURNED LIST
