Details

To copy a template from another catalog to the template catalog, specify template-catalog as the catalog from which the template should be copied. For example, if you want to copy NEWTEMP.TEMPLATE from the catalog named ONE.TEMPLT to the catalog named TARGET.TEMPLT, use the following statements:

libname target 'SAS-data-library';
libname one 'SAS-data-library';

proc greplay nofs;
   tc target.templt;
   tcopy one.templt.newtemp.template;
quit;

To create a duplicate copy of a template, simply omit template-catalog from your TCOPY statement. For example, to create a duplicate copy of a template named NEWTEMP within the template catalog, you could use the following statement:

tcopy newtemp.template;
