SAS/ACCESS Interface to CA-IDMS Software: Reference

Introduction

This chapter contains several example programs designed to introduce and illustrate the SAS/ACCESS DATA step interface to CA-IDMS.

All of the examples in this chapter can be executed against the sample EMPLOYEE database provided by Computer Associates. These examples illustrate syntax and call formats as well as logic tips for sequential and direct access of DBMS records and transaction-oriented applications. Each example is described using numbered comments that correspond to numbered lines of code. The output is shown for each example, but the log files are not included. For an example of a log file, see Introductory Example of a DATA Step Program. All of the examples have several statements in common, as described in the following section.
