Good morning,

 

I assume the answer is 'no', but has anyone found a way to run a SQL Server proc from SAS? 

 

Thanks!

here is the syntax :

 

PROC SQL;
	Connect to odbc (datasrc=datasrcnm user = user_id password = pwd);
		Execute(db.stored_proc) by odbc;
	Disconnect from odbc;
QUIT;

The Execute statement can be used to run the SQL Server Stored process from SAS.

Well isn't that slick.  🙂  And it even works with ODBC.

Thanks very much!

SQL Pass through - any code you pass over to the server will work, as long as you have the correct permissions.

Someday I hope to convince them to get Access for SQL Server.  Until then... sigh.
