Programming Language

Stata

Abstract

usesas loads a SAS datafile into memory. This usually occurs by supplying usesas a SAS dataset (*.sas7bdat, *.sd7, *.sd2, *.ssd01, *.xpt) or SPSS portable files (*.por), but usesas can also load a SAS datafile into memory via a SAS program (*.sas) that creates a SAS dataset. The last dataset created by the SAS program will be the SAS dataset processed by usesas. Usesas calls SAS to run a SAS program. This requires the ability to run SAS on your machine. Usesas works on Windows, Unix, and Linux operating systems.
