I am using SAS v6.07 under VM/ESA.  I have FILEDEF when I concatentated
serveral files like so:

FILEDEF JUNK DISK JUNK MESS1 *
FILEDEF JUNK DISK JUNK MESS2 *(CONCAT
.
.
.

When I try to read the DDNAME junk, I get only the first file. Is this
the correct behavior?  Or am I doing something wrong? (most likely)


Far as the SCAN bug, It turned out that you can't do:

SAS mess (SYSPARM=12/31/92

You have to do:

SAS mess (SYSPARM='12/31/92'

Since 12/31/92 has no white space, I could'nt understand why I was only
getting the 12 in the sysparm.  It's the little things that kill ya...
