   Notes: Read this before you run this sample.
        The database resides in the ets/sasmisc folder. You
        must copy the database to a writeable folder before
        using it. Then define your Windows system environment
        variable, FAME_DATA, to the path of your
        writeable folder containing
        the alltypes.db file (FAME database).
        To assign a fileref to the external file to be processed,
        use the following form of the libname statement:

libname lib7 sasefame "%sysget(FAME_DATA)"
   fameout=stringcase wildcard="?" ;
