Answer / thirumalesh.e
when you write your sas programme include debugging and macro debugging statements at each step boundary and check for errors and messages at log by including put statement along with macro expressions. use all macro debugging statements efficiently. if you get right programme with less or no errors after debugging its validated and file the validated programme according to regulations.
