Example 49.2 Viewing Quarterly Time Series from a Haver Database

The following statements specify a quarterly frequency conversion of all time series for the period spanning April 1, 2001, to December 31, 2004:

libname lib1 sasehavr "%sysget(HAVER_DATA)"
        freq=quarterly
        start=20010401
        end=20041231
        force=freq;

data hwoutq;
   set lib1.haverw;
run;

title1 'Haver Analytics Database, Frequency=quarterly, infile=haverw.dat';
title2 '  Define a range inside the data range for OUT= dataset';
title3 '  Using the START=20010401 END=20041231 LIBNAME options.';

proc print data=hwoutq;
run;

The resulting SAS data set hwoutq is shown in Output 49.2.1.
