672 Examples 4 Chapter 23ExamplesThe following example creates a new ODBC table, TESTUSER.EXCHANGE, fromthe DLIB.RATEOFEX data file. You must be granted the appropriate privileges inorder to create new ODBC tables or views.proc dbload dbms=odbc data=dlib.rateofex;dsn=sample;user=’testuser’;password=’testpass’;table=exchange;rename fgnindol=fgnindollars4=dollarsinfgn;nulls updated=n fgnindollars=ndollarsinfgn=n country=n;load;run;The following example only sends an ODBC SQL GRANT statement to the SAMPLEdatabase and does not create a new table. Therefore, the TABLE= and LOADstatements are omitted.proc dbload dbms=odbc;user=’testuser’;password=’testpass’;dsn=sample;sql grant select on testuser.exchangeto dbitest;run;Temporary Table Support for ODBCOverviewFor general information about this features, see .“Temporary Table Support for SAS/ACCESS” on page 38Establishing a Temporary TableWhen you want to use temporary tables that persist across SAS procedures and DATAsteps with ODBC, you must use the CONNECTION=SHARED LIBNAME option. Whenyou do this, the temporary table is available for processing until the libref is closed.Terminating a Temporary TableYou can drop a temporary table at any time, or allow it to be implicitly dropped whenthe connection is terminated. Temporary tables do not persist beyond the scope of asingle connection.
