Creates and loads the new PC file.
The LOAD statement causes the interface view engine
to create a file and to transfer data to it from the input SAS data set after
the DBLOAD procedure is submitted for processing. This statement is required
to create and load a new file.
When you create and load a file, you must place statements
or groups of statements in a certain order after the PROC DBLOAD statement
and its options, as follows:
-
Database-description statements: PATH= and your
PC file-specific statements.
-
Editing statements: ACCDESC=, DELETE, ERRLIMIT,
LABEL, LIMIT=, LIST, RENAME, RESET, and WHERE. The order within this group
usually does not matter; see the individual statements for more information.
QUIT is also an editing statement but using it immediately terminates PROC
DBLOAD.
-
Creating and loading statement: LOAD must appear
last before RUN in order to create and load the new table.
-
RUN statement: this statement is used to process
the DBLOAD procedure.
