SORTPGM=sort-utility-name | BEST | HOST | SAS |
Details |
The host sort utility might be more suitable than the SAS-supplied sort utility for data sets that contain a large number of observations.
To use SORTPGM=BEST or SORTPGM=HOST when the entry name of the sort utility is not SORT, use the SORTNAME= system option to specify the entry name.
