This example uses the Fame wildcard option to limit the number of series converted. The following statements show how to read only series whose names begin with WSPCA:
options validvarname=any; %let FAME=%sysget(FAME); %put(&FAME); %let FAMETEMP=%sysget(FAME_TEMP); %put(&FAMETEMP); libname lib1 sasefame "%sysget(FAME_DATA)" wildcard="wspca?" convert=(technique=constant freq=twicemonthly ); libname lib2 "%sysget(FAME_TEMP)"; data lib2.twild(label='Annual Series from the FAMEECON.db'); set lib1.subecon; where date between '01jan93'd and '31dec93'd; /* keep only */ keep date wspca; run; proc contents data=lib2.twild; run; proc print data=lib2.twild; run;
Output 41.2.1 and Output 41.2.2 show the results of using WILDCARD="WSPCA?".
The WILDCARD="WSPCA?" option limits reading to only those series whose names begin with WSPCA. The KEEP statement further restricts the SAS data set to include only the series named WSPCA and the DATE variable. The time interval that is used for the conversion is TWICEMONTHLY.
Output 41.2.2: Listing of OUT=LIB2.TWILD of the SUBECON Fame Data
