SAS Options and Variables for VSAM Processing |
SAS provides access to VSAM data sets through the DATA step INFILE, INPUT, FILE, and PUT statements. A group of special VSAM options for the INFILE and FILE statements is used along with standard INFILE and FILE options to read and write VSAM data sets.
Global SAS system options and the automatic SAS variables are set when you process VSAM data sets. Special SAS Options for VSAM presents a complete, descriptive list of each INFILE option available for processing your VSAM data sets.
See Processing VSAM Data Sets in SAS Programs and the appropriate reference section for the VSAM data set that you want to access for information about using these options to process VSAM data.
