What is the difference between a symbolic and an override in executing a PROC?..

Answer / guest

A symbolic is a PROC placeholder; the value for the symbolic
is supplied when the PROC is invoked, eg. &symbol=value. An
override replaces the PROC's statement with another one; it
substitutes for the entire statement.

In the overriding parameter we can override the existing
