EXTENSION='file-type' |
a string up to eight characters long that is a file extension, such as GIF or CGM, that you want to append to an external file.
Details |
The extension specified on EXTENSION= is used when the output destination is a storage location. The extension is ignored when the output destination is a file. To specify the output destination, you can use a FILENAME statement, or the graphics options GACCESS= or GSFNAME=.
Assuming that the output destination is a storage location,
if EXTENSION=' ' or EXTENSION= is not used, the driver's default extension is added to the filename
if the driver has no default extension, SAS/GRAPH uses the default extension .GSF.
