- SAS/ACCESS Interface to ADABAS software communicates with base
SAS software using a Version 6 compatibility engine. The compatibility engine
enables you to create Version 6 SAS/ACCESS views and to use data that is stored
in Version 6 format without converting the data to Version 7 or Version 8
format. For more information about the compatibility engine, see SAS Language Reference: Concepts.
- The interactive windowing interface is not supported. You can
no longer create and edit access descriptors and view descriptors by using
the Access Descriptor and View Descriptor windows. Instead, you must use a
new line-mode interface.
- NATURAL applications are now referred to as NATURAL libraries.
When using a NATURAL DDM, you pass the name of the NATURAL library using the
NSS statement.
