https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Viya/Programatically-manipulate-data-objects-in-SAS-VI/m-p/796396#M1361 I am interested in learning how to programmatically manipulate data objects that have been imported into SAS VI. For example, how would one change the length of a field or maybe change a field from character to numeric by writing code as opposed to pointing and clicking in the gui or dropping the data object and rebuilding with the needed changes.<BR /><BR />I'm looking for basic skeleton code examples or good papers or articles on this topic.<BR /><BR />Thanks.
