Hi experts,

 

I have a sas table like "xxx.sas7bdat", and i want to generate a xml file. can i do this directly using proc export?

proc export data=personal.xxx
outfile="/sasdatos/xml_file"

dbms= ???    replace;

quit;

or i have to do other step and then generate the xml file ?

 

Thks!

LIBNAME XMLV2 most likely.

 

libname myXml xmlv2 '/home/fkhurshed/Demo1.xml';

proc copy in=sashelp out=myXml;
select class;
run;

libname myXml;

If you need to have a custom map, see the left hand side of the docs on how to export using an xml map.
