Conventions Used in the Tables
The tables that describe
the SAS data sets use these conventions:
-
The names of key variables are
appended with two asterisks (**). Some data sets do not have a key.
-
Foreign key variable names are
prepended with two carat characters (^^). Foreign key variable names
reference, in brackets [ ], the name of the data set for which it
is a foreign key.
-
Required fields are marked with
an X between brackets [X]. Required fields are fields for which a
non-nil and non-whitespace-only value must be supplied in any observation
for that data set.
-
All data set names and column names
are case sensitive. They must be specified exactly as shown.
