Using the XPORT engine has these limitations:
-
The XPORT engine supports only
members of type DATA. It does not support members of type CATALOG
or VIEW.
-
The XPORT engine supports a feature
set that is compatible with SAS 6. The XPORT engine cannot support
SAS 9 features, such as long variable names. Warning or error messages
report limitations that are encountered during the transport operation.
For details about typical error messages and recovery actions, see
File library.member.DATA has too long a member name for the XPORT engine.
-

does not support the transport of any type of view or MDDB.
