Advanced Topics for the IMS DATA Step Interface |
This section discusses the use of the IMS DATA step interface in some of the more advanced areas of DL/I programming, specifically, restarting update programs and constructing and using SSAs in DATA step programs. Because this information is intended for experienced DL/I programmers, there is little explanation of DL/I concepts and facilities in this section. The purpose of this information is to explain how SAS programs can be used to perform advanced DL/I functions, not to explain these functions.
