SAS User File for H33B Data    

This file contains information and sample SAS programs to create a permanent
SAS dataset, for users who want to use SAS in processing the MEPS data
provided in this PUF release.

There are two ways to create a permanent SAS dataset, using either the SAS
transport data file (H33B.SSP) or the ASCII data file (H33B.DAT)        
supplied in this PUF release.  Section A provides a sample SAS program for the
first alternative, which is to convert the SAS transport data file to a
regular SAS dataset, using the SAS PROCedure: XCOPY.  Section B provides a
sample SAS program for the second alternative, which is to read data from the
ASCII data file, using a SAS DATA step with INFILE, INPUT, and LABEL
statements.  Section C explains format-related SAS statements that a user may
optionally use when working with the SAS dataset.  Examples of SAS programs
(DATA step or PROC) are provided in all three sections, primarily for the
benefit of inexperienced users.  Section D contains complete SAS statements
that must be used in the programs described in Sections B and C.

INCLUDED BELOW ARE NOTES APPLICABLE TO USERS OF SAS VERSION 8.

******************************************************************************

The sample SAS programs provided in Sections A and B show how to create a
permanent SAS dataset from the data files provided in this PUF release.

A.     A Sample SAS Program for Converting the SAS Transport File to a
Permanent SAS Dataset 

The SAS PROCedure XCOPY will read a SAS transport data file and convert the
data to regular SAS format, storing the output in a permanent SAS dataset. 
This permanent SAS dataset can then be used for all future processing and
analyses.

Below is a sample PC-SAS program that can be used to convert the SAS transport
file to a permanent PC SAS dataset (in a Windows environment, with SAS V6.12). 
 
     LIBNAME PUFLIB 'C:\MEPS';
     FILENAME IN1 'C:\MEPS\H33B.SSP';    

     PROC XCOPY IN=IN1 OUT=PUFLIB IMPORT;
     RUN;

If the user wants a list of variables and a few sample records in the
permanent SAS dataset, following are the SAS statements to accomplish these.

     PROC CONTENTS DATA=PUFLIB.H33B;    
     TITLE "List of Variables in MEPS H33B SAS Dataset";    
     RUN;

     PROC PRINT DATA=PUFLIB.H33B (OBS=20);    
     TITLE "First 20 Observations in MEPS H33B SAS Dataset";    
     RUN;

The LIBNAME statement tells SAS the location (directory name) to store the
permanent SAS dataset which is output by PROC XCOPY.  The FILENAME statement
tells SAS the location (complete directory and file name) of the input SAS
transport data file. 

NOTES:

     1)  The names used in the LIBNAME and FILENAME statements shown
     above (i.e., PUFLIB, IN1) are arbitrary; they are only temporary
     aliases.

     2)  The directory and file names used in the LIBNAME and FILENAME
     statements shown above are Windows syntax and may need to be
     modified for other operating systems such as UNIX, MAC/OS, VMS, or
     OS/2.

     3)  H33B is the internal SAS dataset name (also the PC file name,    
     without the extension) prior to the creation of the SAS transport data
     file.  After running PROC XCOPY, the output SAS dataset assumes the same
     dataset name (or file name).  Hence, in the example above, a file named
     H33B.SD2 will be created under the C:\MEPS directory when PROC    
     XCOPY runs successfully.

     4)  The SAS transport file H33B.SSP was created from a PC-SAS Version    
     6.12 data file, using PROC COPY.  This file has been tested for use
     with PC-SAS version 6.10 or higher, or with mainframe SAS version
     6.08 or higher.  This file may work with earlier versions of SAS,
     although it has not been tested with those versions. Users who are
     unable to use this SAS Transport file should instead convert the ASCII
     data file H33B.DAT to a SAS data set as described in Section B.    

ADDITONAL NOTE TO USERS OF SAS VERSION 8:  One of the following procedures
should be used to avoid a SAS error when using the downloaded SAS Transport
file:

     1) Add V8 to LIBNAME statement - e.g., 

               LIBNAME PUFLIB V8 'C:\MEPS'; 
      OR

     2) Output the SAS data set to a different library than the one which
     contains the downloaded SAS Transport file - e.g.,

               LIBNAME PUFLIB 'C:\MEPS';
               FILENAME IN1 'C:\DOWNLOAD\H33B.SSP';      

               PROC XCOPY IN=IN1 OUT=PUFLIB IMPORT;
               RUN;

B.     A Sample SAS Program for Converting the ASCII Data File to a Permanent
SAS Dataset

The complete SAS statements (INPUT and LABEL) included in Section D are
intended to save time for those users wishing to create a permanent SAS
dataset from the H33B.DAT ASCII data  file.  These statements must be used    
in combination with other SAS statements to create the appropriate SAS
program, as shown below.  To use the statements provided in Section D to
create a SAS program, you will need an ASCII text editor.  If you are using an
interactive form of SAS (Windows, UNIX, OS2, etc.), use the editor provided as
part of the SAS software.  

Following is a sample SAS program that will convert the ASCII data file to SAS
format.

     LIBNAME PUFLIB 'C:\MEPS';
     FILENAME IN1 'C:\MEPS\H33B.DAT';    

     DATA PUFLIB.H33B;    
     INFILE IN1 LRECL=310;  
     INPUT .....; * to user: insert the complete INPUT statement that is
provided in Section D;
     LABEL .....; * to user: insert the complete LABEL statement that is
provided in Section D;
     RUN;

Here is an explanation of the SAS statements used in the program above.

LIBNAME statement: This tells SAS the location (directory name) of the
permanent SAS dataset.

FILENAME statement: This tells SAS the location of the input ASCII data file.

DATA statement: This signifies the beginning of a SAS DATA step and specifies
describes the output SAS dataset, referencing the LIBNAME entry (PUFLIB) and
assigning an internal SAS dataset name (H33B).  In the example, after the    
successful completion of the DATA step, a PC file named H33B.SD2 would have    
been created in the C:\MEPS directory.

INFILE statement: This tells SAS the location (directory and file name) of the
input ASCII data file.  Also provided is the logical record length (310  
bytes), with the default of RECFM=V implied when this parameter is omitted. 
LRECL and RECFM are optional parameters in the INFILE statement.  With regard
to these options, please note the following: the ASCII data file H33B.DAT    
contains a 2-byte carriage return/line feed at the end of each record.  When
converting to a PC-SAS file, the LRECL option should be used to specify the
record length to avoid use of a default record length by PC-SAS.  If the
RECFM=V option is used, the LRECL option must be specified as the logical
record length (e.g., 310 for H33B.DAT).  If RECFM=F is used, then the      
LRECL value must  be specified as the logical record length plus 2 (312 for  
H33B.DAT).  Note that if the RECFM option is omitted, then the default    
option of RECFM=V is automatically used, and LRECL should be specified as the
logical record (310 for H33B.DAT).      

INPUT statement: This specifies the input record layout, giving names and the
beginning and ending column positions for data items (which become SAS
variables) in the ASCII data file (H33B.DAT).  Variable type (numeric or    
character) is also defined via the INPUT statement.

LABEL statement: This associates descriptive names with the SAS variables.

RUN statement: This tells SAS to execute all commands up to this point.

ADDITONAL NOTE TO USERS OF SAS VERSION 8:  One of the following procedures
should be used to avoid a SAS error when using the downloaded ASCII data file:

     1) Add V8 to LIBNAME statement - e.g., 

               LIBNAME PUFLIB V8 'C:\MEPS'; 
      OR

     2) Output the SAS data set to a different library than the one which
     contains the downloaded ASCII data file - e.g.,

               LIBNAME PUFLIB 'C:\MEPS';
               FILENAME IN1 'C:\DOWNLOAD\H33B.DAT';      

               DATA PUFLIB.H33B;    
               INFILE IN1 LRECL=310;  

C.     Optional Format-related SAS Statements

If a user wants to use formats for the SAS variables, a SAS format library
must first be created.  Below is a SAS program that will accomplish this.

     LIBNAME PUFLIB 'C:\MEPS';
     
     PROC FORMAT LIBRARY=PUFLIB;
     VALUE .....; * to user: insert the complete set of VALUE statements found
in Section D;
     VALUE .....;
     .......... ;
     RUN;


Below is an example of how to use the SAS formats defined by the PROC FORMAT
procedure.

     LIBNAME PUFLIB 'C:\MEPS';
     OPTIONS FMTSEARCH=(PUFLIB); 
   
     PROC FREQ DATA=PUFLIB.H33B;    
     TABLES .... / LIST MISSING;
     FORMAT varnam1 fmtnam1.  Varnam2 fmtnam2.  .... ;
     * to user: substitute varnami and fmtnami with actual variable names and
format names;
     *     Insert the FORMAT statement provided in Section D, if you are using
all the variables;
     *     in the TABLES statement;
     TITLE "Frequency Distributions ....";
     RUN; 

Here is an explanation of the SAS statements used above.

LIBNAME statement: This tells SAS the location (directory name) of the SAS
format library.  Please note that SAS datasets (file name extension is 'SD2')
and format libraries (file name extension is 'SC2') can be stored under the
same directory.

OPTIONS FMTSEARCH=...: This specifies the SAS format library.

PROC FORMAT statement: This identifies the SAS procedure that will make SAS
formats according to VALUE statements.  Formats will be stored in a file named
FORMATS.SC2.  Please note that the option 'LIBRARY=...' can be omitted, if the
user does not want to create a permanent SAS format library.  When simply
'PROC FORMAT;' is used, the formats are defined only for the duration of the
batch SAS program or an interactive SAS session.

VALUE statement: This gives a) names to formats; and b) descriptive labels for
individual values, or range of values.  The format names can then be invoked
using a FORMAT statement, if desired.

PROC FREQ statement: This identifies the SAS procedure that will generate
frequency distributions of variables specified in the TABLES statement,
formatted if a FORMAT statement is used.  The input SAS dataset is specified
in the 'DATA=' option.

FORMAT statement: This associates existing formats with variables.  When using
this statement, the formats must have already been created with a PROC FORMAT
procedure. 

RUN statement: This tells SAS to execute all commands up to this point.


NOTES:

     1)  Use of formats is entirely optional, and depends on the type
     of analyses that you are doing.  It is recommended that you create
     and use them as appropriate.

     2)  The names used in the LIBNAME and FILENAME statements shown
     above (i.e., PUFLIB, IN1) are arbitrary; they are only temporary
     aliases.

     3)  You only create the permanent SAS data set once.  Additional
     analyses can be run using this permanent dataset.

     4)  The file and directory specifications in the LIBNAME and
     FILENAME statements are Windows syntax and may need to be modified
     for other operating systems such as UNIX, MAC/OS, VMS, or OS/2.
