Key Functions in Oracle SQL

Oracle Snapshot

Here you find a really good link to a documentation for the key functions in Oracle SQL (e.g. “to_char”). The description contains the most important date, number and string functions.
Check out: Harvard Documentation

SAS: SQL Pass Through

With this SAS Program you are able to connect to a database with SQL Pass Through via ODBC. The advantage is, that the SQL Statement will be processed by the resources of the database. The disadvantage is, that you cannot use SAS specific functions which are not supported by the database sql language.

proc sql;
connect to odbc (dsn=”…” user=”…” password=”*****”);
create table my_table as
select * from connection to odbc
(
select

from

where

);
disconnect from odbc;
quit;
