This appendix provides
information about the
ADABAS files, NATURAL DDMs, access descriptors, view descriptors, and
SAS data files used in the examples in this document.
It shows the
ADABAS data definition statements and the
data that were used to build the
ADABAS files. It also shows the access descriptors and view
descriptors, along with any selection criteria. In addition, this
appendix shows the data and the SAS statements that were used to create
the SAS data files for the examples.
If you want to run the
examples in this document, contact your on-site SAS support personnel
for information about accessing the sample library files. The sample
files contain instructions for creating the
ADABAS files. The steps are as follows:
-
Create the
ADABAS files using the
ADABAS data definition statements.
-
Create the NATURAL DDMs
for the
ADABAS files as
shown in each description.
-
Create the SAS data
files.
-
Create an access descriptor
and an associated view descriptor for each
ADABAS file. Make sure that all SAS names match between the
view descriptor and the
ADABAS file. Use the access descriptors in this appendix as a model.
Select every field for the access descriptors, and create views that
also select every field.
-
Run the APPEND procedure
with the data set options shown below. Use the SAS data file to update
the view.
proc append data=SAS-file base=view-descriptor;
run;
