| LIBNAME Statement: PC Files on Microsoft Windows |
Specifies whether to force the truncation of data during insert
processing.
| Valid in: |
DATA and PROC steps (when accessing PC files
data using SAS/ACCESS software)
|
| Default value: |
NO
|
-
YES
-
specifies that the rows that contain data
values that exceed the length of the column are inserted, and the data values
are truncated to fit the column length.
-
NO
-
specifies that the rows that contain data
values that exceed the column length are not inserted.
This option determines how the SAS/ACCESS engine
handles rows that contain data values that exceed the length of the column.
The SAS data set option FORCE overrides this option
when it is used with PROC APPEND or the PROC SQL UPDATE statement. The PROC
SQL UPDATE statement does not provide a warning before truncating the data.
