I want to see all columns in sas tables,table name and libname.I get an error like below:
Is there a work around or al alternative to get this information (the table from dictionary show the same error).
Alternative can I ask the metadata server ? and how (code example is appreciated).
Thanks in advance.
23 proc sql;
24 create table XXXX AS
25 select libname, memname, name, type from
26
27 sashelp.VCOLUMN;
ERROR: Incorrect length in SAS Metadata Repository for column initial_1.
Either fix the metadata for initial_1 or disconnect from meta data?
hoW can i disconnect metadata in EG? and connect again?
Hi
Have a look at the "Update Library Metadata" task under Tools.
This task can report on the differences between the Metadata definition and the actual physical table.
The task can also update the Metadata definition, provided you have the necessary permissions.
