/ Program   : commas.sas
/ Version   : 1.0
/ Author    : Roland Rashleigh-Berry
/ Date      : 30-Jul-2007
/ Purpose   : Function-style macro to separate the elements of a list with
/             commas.
/ SubMacros : %quotelst
/ Notes     : This uses %quotelst to do all the work. You would typically use 
/             this to delimit a list of variables with commas for proc sql where
/             it is not known if resolved values equate to anything.
/ Usage     : order by %commas(&var1 &var2 &var3);
