Hi

I'm supposed to write hierarchial XML from SAS 9.1.3. The format of the XML file has to be certain.

How can this hiererchial XML be produced? Would writing new tagset be the best possible way? When I tried to create the hierarchies on data-step, the created child element didn't come out to the XML file...
Perhaps I should use data _null_ and put into file for all of the data?

Actually it was best to be done with data-step: creating the hierarchy into one variable and then writing to a file with libname statement.

If at SAS 9.2, consider the XML engine to do the heavy lifting for you. Consider other DOC-related and references available at the SAS support http://support.sas.com/ website.

Hi:
Remember that the ability to create an XML file from a SAS dataset using an XML Map is still "pre-production" in SAS 9.2 -- because it requires the XML92 engine, as described here:
