About Event

"Zip, zip, hooray!" is exactly what you'll be saying once you learn how to read and create ZIP files using SAS. SAS provides built-in capabilities to handle ZIP files directly within your programs, making it easier than ever to work with compressed data. In this guide, we’ll walk you through the methods SAS offers to efficiently manage ZIP files and streamline your data processing tasks.

You will learn how to use the FILENAME ZIP method to read from and write content into ZIP files, as well as discover the files and folders that exist within a ZIP archive. You'll also be able to read data files directly within the DATA step and even handle gzip (GZ) files, which are commonly used on Unix file systems. Additionally, we’ll highlight important considerations, limitations, and cautions when working with ZIP files in SAS to ensure smooth and efficient processing.
