This option allows Teradata
connections to open in the specified mode. Connections that open with
MODE=TERADATA use Teradata mode rules for all SQL requests that are
passed to the Teradata DBMS. This impacts transaction behavior and
can cause case insensitivity when processing data.
During data insertion,
not only is each inserted row committed implicitly, but rollback is
not possible when the error limit is reached if you also specify ERRLIMIT=.
Any update or delete that involves a cursor does not work.
ANSI mode is recommended
for all features that
SAS/ACCESS supports, and Teradata mode is
recommended only for reading data from Teradata.
