Parts of a Catalog Name |
SAS catalog entries are fully identified by a four-level name in the following form:
libref.catalog.entry-name.entry-type
You commonly specify the two-level name for an entire catalog, as follows:
libref.catalog
The entry name and entry type are required by some SAS procedures. If the entry type has been specified elsewhere or if it can be determined from context, you can use the entry name alone. To specify entry names and entry types, use this form:
entry-name.entry-type
