Hi i'm new to SAS.After Going through some examples in this forum i automated sas work by c# application like, I made a macro to run in SAS EG 4.3 to get an output from c# application.
I have one doubt!!! Is it possible to find the Variable format datatype name like 'Date','DateTime','Time',etc... in SAS7bdat extension files by c# application?

You may want to look at this excellent paper, part of the r-project, which goes in depth in the sas database binary data file format
