Hi, I exported a SAS data set to a .csv file using ODS csv file statement. I tried 2 different options : first, I used proc print noobs without a var statement. Then, I used Proc sql select * statement. I got 2 .csv files of different sizes. The first file was considerably bigger than the second file. I opened the 2 .csv files. They looked the same with the same number of rows and columns. Since I exported the same data set, shouldn't the size be the same in both cases? Is there a difference between Proc print noobs and Proc SQL select * as far as the output is concerned? Thanks! Happy Holidays!
