Notes: Read this before you run this sample.
The sample data provided resides in the ets/sasmisc folder.
If you are using automap=READONLY, then you must copy the
map of your incoming XML data to a writeable folder before
using it. So, define a Windows system environment variable
,QUANDL, to the path of your writeable folder containing
the quanex02.map file and QUANEX02.xml.
To assign a fileref to the external file to be processed,
use the following form of the libname statement:
libname quan sasequan "%sysget(QUANDL)"
OUTXML=quanex02
AUTOMAP=replace
MAPREF=MyMap
XMLMAP="%sysget(QUANDL)quanex02.map"
APIKEY='<your Quandl apikey>'
IDLIST='<your list of Quandl codes (separated by commas>'
START='<trim_start>'
END='<trim-end>'
