The SASEFAME Interface Engine

This example demonstrates selection by using the CROSSLIST= option. Only the ticker “IBM” is specified in the KEEP statement from the 11 companies in the Fame ticker namelist.

libname lib9 sasefame "%sysget(FAME_DATA)"
        convert=(frequency=business technique=constant)
        range='07jul1997'd - '25jul1997'd
        crosslist=( nl(ticker),
                    { adjust, close, high, low, open, volume,
                      uclose, uhigh, ulow, uopen, uvolume }
                  );

data crout;
   /* eleven companies in the FAME ticker namelist */
   set lib9.training;
   keep IBM: ;
run;

title1 'TRAINING DB, Pricing Timeseries for Eleven Tickers in CROSSLIST=';
title2 'Using TICKER namelist.';
proc print data=crout;
run;

proc contents data=crout;
run;

Output 41.9.1 and Output 41.9.2 show the results.
