The DBLOAD Procedure for Relational Databases

LIST Statement


Lists information about the variables to be loaded
Default: ALL

LIST <ALL | FIELD | variable-identifier>;


Details

The LIST statement lists information about some or all of the SAS variables to be loaded into the new DBMS table. By default, the list is sent to the SAS log.

The LIST statement can take these arguments.

ALL

lists information about all variables in the input SAS data set, despite whether those variables are selected for the load.

FIELD

lists information about only the input SAS variables that are selected for the load.

variable-identifier

lists information about only the specified variable. The variable-identifier argument can be either the SAS variable name or the positional equivalent. The positional equivalent is the number that represents the variable's position in the data set. For example, if you want to list information for the column associated with the third SAS variable, submit this statement:

list 3;

You can specify LIST as many times as you want while creating a DBMS table; specify LIST before the LOAD statement to see the entire table.
