Required Arguments

REXXMAC
enables the REXX interface. When the REXX interface is enabled, if SAS encounters an unrecognized statement, then it searches for a REXX EXEC file whose name matches the first word of the unrecognized statement. The REXXLOC= system option specifies the ddname of the REXX library to be searched.
NOREXXMAC
disables the REXX interface. When the REXX interface is disabled, if SAS encounters an unrecognized statement, then a "statement is not valid" error occurs.
