Ludger,



    You can output the filename using the SYMPUT function and then use

the macro variable within a title/footnote statement by referencing the

macro variable as an &var within double quotes.



data sample;

     length filename $20;

     infile 'c:\autoexec.bat' filename=filename;

     input line $char80.;

     call symput ('filename', filename);

run;

proc print data=sample;

     title "&filename";

run;





Anthony.
