AUTHLIB Procedure

Example 1: Binding a Physical Library That Contains Unprotected Data Sets

Features:

CREATE Statement and Options:: SECUREDLIBRARY=; SECUREDFOLDER=; PW=

Details

Here is an example of binding a physical library that contains data sets that do not have passwords. Library ZYXWVUT contains three data sets — EMPLOYEES, EMPINFO, and PRODUCT — that do not have passwords. The library and data sets are bound with the password secretpw. The binding is straightforward, as PROC AUTHLIB has unhindered access to the data.

Program

proc authlib lib=zyxwvut; 
  create securedfolder="Department XYZZY"    
    securedlibrary="ZYXWVUTEmps"  
    pw=secretpw;  
                      
run;    
quit;
