As it stands, you won't be able to do this. Technically speaking, you'd have to code it with a fieldname in the AS.

However, it doesn't work this way. Without knowing the nature of DATEVAL and MYYEAR, it's hard to say.

If MYYEAR will end up being a single distinct value, then you could do this:

TABLE FILE SALESWORK
SUM MAX.MYYEAR
ON TABLE SAVE AS MYYEAR
END
-RUN
-SET &MYYEAR.A20.
-READ MYYEAR &MYYEAR

TABLE FILE EMPDS
SUM MY1VAL AS '&MYYEAR'
BY WID
END

...Of course, the -SET &MYYEAR.A20. would depend on the actual length of the field being saved. If you run ran the request up to the -RUN (before the &MYYEAR), you should see the actual length of the SAVE file. It is this value that you would use in the -SET.

However, that being said, it depends on whether MYYEAR (from the define) will be a distinct value. If not, then you would probably want to do an ACROSS MYYEAR such as:

TABLE FILE EMPDS
SUM MY1VAL
BY WID
ACROSS MYYEAR
END
