Hit the data dictionaries instead
Check SASHELP.VTABLE and query that or look into proc contents or proc dataset.
For variable properties it would be Vcolumns or the dictionary.columns in SQL;
Proc sql;
select *

quit;
The library name and data set name are in caps as that is the way the data is stored in data view.
