Sybase data issue

jmcclung78 — Tue, 23 Aug 2016 18:27:01 GMT

I am successfully connecting to a Sybase database. However, the query only pulls data back for those columns whose data type is not char. Has anyone else expierienced this issue?

Thanks,

Jeremy

Show the code of the query at least. Insufficient information though the likely cause will be something in the way you built the query or none of the variables are char.

Here is the code:

%include "P:\Jeremy\SAS\PAASLogin.sas";
libname paas odbc dsn="PAAS Prod" uid=&user pwd=&password;

proc sql;
drop table work.PAASTest;
quit;

PROC SQL;

create table work.PAASTest as
(Select *

from paas.CDOC_TABLE A

Where A.CUST_CODE='FRA000310'

);
quit;

data work.PAASTest;
set PAASTest;
run;

If you run proc contents on paas.CDOC_TABLE what you do get for results?
