Proc print data=libref.ae; var _all_; run; Proc print data=libref.conmed; var _all_; run; Proc print data=libref.demog; var _all_; run; Proc print data=libref.lab; var _all_; run; Proc print data=libref.medhist; var _all_; run; If you are like me who likes to simplify the traditional SAS code here is the tip. CALL EXECUTE comes to rescue here.
