| The SASECRSP Interface Engine |
You can use the SAS DATA step to write the selected CRSP data to a SAS data set. This enables the user to easily analyze the data using SAS. The name of the output data set is specified by you on the DATA statement. This causes the engine supervisor to create a SAS data set using the specified name in either the SAS WORK library, or if specified, the USER library. For more about naming your SAS data set, see the section "Characteristics of SAS Data Libraries" in SAS Language Reference: Dictionary.
The contents of the SAS data set include the DATE of each observation, the series names of each series read from the CRSPAccess database, event variables, and the label or description of each series/event.
