I have some complex sql code  to run from SAS, currently its working in SQL server but not from SAS. I tried simple SELECT SQL to execute from PROC sql with Execute odbc. its not giving any error and warning and no output

do you suggest what could be the problem

 

Proc SQL;

connect to odbc(DSN=&DSN user=&user password=&pwds);

Execute (DECLARE @Query NVARCHAR(MAX) = ''

Set @Query='select distinct qrm_db from [FASTControl].[dbo].ALM_NVPData

PRINT @Query

sp_executesql @Query

') by odbc;

quit;

24 ODS EXCEL(ID=EGXLSSX) FILE=EGXLSSX STYLE=Excel

25 OPTIONS (

26 EMBEDDED_TITLES="no" EMBEDDED_FOOTNOTES="no"

27 );

31 connect to odbc(DSN=&DSN user=&user password=&pwds);

32 Execute (DECLARE @Query NVARCHAR(MAX) = ''

33 Set @Query='select distinct qrm_db from [FASTControl].[dbo].ALM_NVPData

34 PRINT @Query

35 sp_executesql @Query

36 ') by odbc;

37 quit;

Looks like it is working OK then. The SAS EXECUTE statement runs SQL but doesn't produce any result set. If you want to see a result set then you need to get the stored procedure to create a temporary SQL Server table, then query the temporary table in a following SQL SELECT query.
