SASEXFSD Interface Engine

The new SASEXFSD interface engine enables SAS users to access FactSet data that are provided by the FactSet FASTFetch Web service. This service provides access to a number of data libraries from economic and financial data sources such as Aspect Huntley Fundamentals, Compustat, Dun and Bradstreet Corporation, FactSet, Ford Equity Research, Reuters, SEDAR, Toyo Keizai, Value Line, Worldscope, CEIC, EuroStat, Global Insight, IMF International Financial Statistics, INDB Main Economic Indicators, Markit Economics, OECD, ONS (UK Office for National Statistics), U.S. Consumer Confidence Survey, Thomson Analytics Insider Trading, Trucost Environmental, SIC, and WM/Reuters. The ExtractBenchmarkDetail factlet is now supported by the SASEXFSD interface, and the ExtractEconData factlet can use FQL (Factset Query Language) syntax and functions. The SASEXFSD interface is now production and supports Windows.
