This simple example shows how to retrieve SALE data for one particular GVKEY=6066 (IBM). Since the ITEMLIST= option does not specify a keyset, the default (standard) keyset, KEYSET_TAG=STD, is selected. For brevity, a subset of the data with the most recent figures is specified by the WHERE statement.
title 'Retrieve SALE data for IBM'; libname _all_ clear; libname crsp sasexccm "%sysget(CRSP_CCM)" setid=250 gvkey=6066 itemlist="sale"; data recentsales; set crsp.annitem; where datadate >= '1jan2000'd; proc print data=recentsales; run;
