how to list all available user defined macros in SAS Enterprise Guide?

Question

Say in my main code I have this code block:

%macros hi5;
 %put hi five;
%mend;

%macros helloworld;
  %put hello world;
%mend;

How do I, in SAS Enterprise Guide, display something like this? (via log or via a SAS table)

These are the user defined user macros:

hi5
hello world

(the aim is so that user is able to know what macros are already available to them).

Note: the %put _ALL_ only list all macros variables, not macros (e.g. built with %macros and %mend.)

Answer 1

You can get there via PROC CATALOG, or via dictionary.catalogs. The latter will work even if you don't know where they're stored.

proc sql;
  select * 
    from dictionary.catalogs
    where objtype='MACRO';
quit;

That will include the predefined macros in SASHELP, which you can exclude using where libname ne 'SASHELP'.

Answer 2

When you are running SAS using Enterprise Guide, SAS/Studio or other new fangled access methods the compiled macros that would previously appear in WORK.SASMACR catalog now end up in WORK.SASMAC1. At least in the environments I have explored.

Answer 3

I'm using proc catalogs

proc catalog cat=xxxxx.sasmacr;contents;run;
