AFTER= Option of PROC CPORT Not Correctly Honoring Date Specified


The AFTER= option of PROC CPORT is not correctly honoring the date specified as the AFTER= argument. Catalog entries may be put in transport format that should have been excluded from the transport file.

To circumvent the problem, make sure that the range of dates covered by the YEARCUTOFF option includes the creation dates for catalog entries that you are processing. A YEARCUTOFF= value of 1920 should work in most cases. Note that the default YEARCUTOFF= value for Version 6 is 1900 while the default value for Version 7 is 1920.

If you are using a double-byte character set, please read SAS note V6-CPORT-G587 for additional information.

THIS IS A YEAR 2000 READINESS DISCLOSURE.
