where module-name is a character matrix or quoted literal containing the name of an IML module.
The CONVMOD function returns a character matrix with n rows and 1 column, where n is the number of statements in the module. The element length is determined from the longest statement in the module. The CONVMOD function is supported to maintain compatibility with Version 5 SAS/IML software. It should be used only in conjunction with the STORE and PARSE statements. For example, consider the statements
start abc; \ob statements \obe finish; r=convmod('abc'); /* convert module ABC to matrix R */ store r; /* store module as character matrix */Note that this can also be done in just one step with the statement
store module='abc';This statement stores module ABC in the storage library. You should use the STORE MODULE= command instead to store modules. See Chapter 14, "Storage Features," for details concerning storage of modules.
