 Hi,

 

I am working on a medical code (RxNorm) data and I am trying to read a specific data into sas with no way through. I have created  a fictitious data which is a very similar to the real data.

 

Sample raw data

 

{"userInput":{"relaSource":"MEDRT","relas":"may_treat","rxcui":"128793"},"rxclassDrugInfoList":{"rxclassDrugInfo":[{"minConcept":{"rxcui":"142439","name":"Hydrocodone Bitartrate","tty":"PIN"},

"rxclassMinConceptItem"{"classId":"D003371","className":"Cough","classType":"DISEASE"},"rela":"may_treat","relaSource":"MEDRT"},{"minConcept":{"rxcui":"142439","name":"Hydrocodone Bitartrate","tty":"PIN"},

"rxclassMinConceptItem":{"classId":"D008173","className":"Lung Diseases, Obstructive","classType":"DISEASE"},"rela":"may_treat","relaSource":"MEDRT"},{"minConcept":{"rxcui":"142439","name":"Hydrocodone Bitartrate","tty":"PIN"},

 

Thanks.

Please show what you would like the output data to look like and what data type and length each column should have.

Hello,

 

Is this an xml file? Does it have a specific pattern? Try using _infile_ to read this kind of unstructured data. Please provide more information on how your data pattern aligns & how you need the output. 

 

Thanks,

Kiran

Looks like a json-file, have your tried reading it by using libname jlib json "path-to-file"?
