  • create SAS statements to be submitted for processing by other SAS procedures

  • provide menus for selecting other applications

  • provide computer-based training

  • provide online Help.

This section provides reference information about the BUILD procedure, including the complete syntax of the statements that are used in the procedure.

Note:   You can also open the BUILD procedure windows by using
