Answer Posted / paul
we can read by a simple libname access method:
eg:
libname exlbook 'd:\excel file location\file name.xls';
proc copy in=exlbook out=work;
run;
/*here i am coying the entire excel workbook to work library
in sas, so we can get all sheets at a time.
if we use proc import we can import a single sheet at a time
By the above method we can dump all table from a MS-access database or oracle database or any other db.
only we have to change the connection details, i.e.,
excel --> file name with path
access --> db name with path
oracle/any other RDBMS --> user=***, password=****,
path=**** or host=****
another advantage of this method is :
the library will not occupy any memory on hard disc
it only acts as a repository which save memory and
processing time */
