NEW FORMATS:
The new length for numeric format names is 32. For
character names it is 31. Format names can be associated
with a data set. The only difference between SAS V9 and
previous versions of data sets is the existence of a format
name longer than the traditional 8 bytes.
Version 9 data sets that use 8 byte or shorter format names
can be read by Version 8.
NEW INFORMATS
The new length for numeric informat names is 31 and for
character names is 30. Informat names can be associated

name longer than the traditional 8 bytes. Version 9 data
sets that use 8 byte or shorter format names can be read by
Version 8.
