 Figure 1-32.  Save Selected Input Observations Panel

Several queries have the ability to save the observations
selected by your analysis inquiry to an external SAS file for
further processing by independent SAS programs, or for future
processing by the analysis query.  The Save Selected Input
Observations panel allows you to specify that the selected
observations are to be written to an external SAS file, and
the SAS data set name and the name of the SAS file to which
they are to be written.  Note that the SAS data set must
already be created.
