SAS/ACCESS Interface to ADABAS Software

Example Data in This Book

This book uses several NATURAL DDMs to show you how to use the SAS/ACCESS interface to ADABAS. The data were created for an international textile manufacturer. This company's product line includes some special fabrics that are made to precise specifications. The DDMs are named CUSTOMERS, EMPLOYEE, INVOICE, and ORDER. All the data are fictitious.

The ADABAS data are designed to show how the interface treats ADABAS data. They are not meant as examples for you to follow in designing ADABAS files or NATURAL DDMs for any purpose.

Example Data gives more information about the ADABAS data, SAS/ACCESS descriptor files, and SAS data files used in examples. The information on the ADABAS data includes the ADABAS statements that created each file, the data each ADABAS file contains, and a description of the NATURAL DDMs. The information on the SAS/ACCESS descriptor files includes their definitions and any selection criteria that were specified for them. The information on the SAS data files includes the SAS statements that created each data file and the data that each contains.
