Figure 3-23. Save Selected Input Observations Panel
The Save selected input observations extended option allows
you to specify a SAS data set and file names to receive the
input observations processed by the reporting software. The
number of files that are created and their content are report
dependent. When inquiries save data to multiple files, you
must provide alternative output file names for all of the
indicated files. The saved files can be reread as alternate
input files in subsequent analysis inquiries.
A common use for this extended option is in the iterative
processing of an analysis program. In this scenario, an
initial execution of the analysis inquiry inputs and subsets
data from a CA MICS file (possibly an archive tape file when
only one SAS file is required by the analysis/report),
retaining the selected data through this Save selected input
observations extended option. Subsequent analysis executions
can use the Specify alternate input file extended option to
reprocess the saved data. In this way, you can economically
reprocess input data against a variety of analysis parameters
without revisiting the original CA MICS files.
