1.Introduction
SQL,anacronymforStructuredQueryLanguage,isanANSI（AmericanNationalStandardsInstitute）standarddatabaseprogramming/querylanguage.SQLisastandardized,widelyusedlanguagethatretrievesandupdatesdataintablesandviewsbasedonthosetables.
TheSASSystem'sSQLprocedureenablesyouto
∙retrieveandmanipulatedatathatarestoredintablesorviews.
∙createtables,views,andsoforth.
∙createSASmacrovariablesthatcontainvaluesfromrowsinaquery'sresult.
∙addormodifythedatavaluesinatable'scolumnsorinsertanddeleterows.Youcanalsomodifythetableitselfbyadding,modifying,ordroppingcolumns.
∙createtablesandview
∙joinmultipletables
∙generatereports
∙sendDBMS-specificSQLstatementstoadatabasemanagementsystem（DBMS）andtoretrieveDBMSdata.
1.1WhatisSQLtable?
APROCSQLtableissynonymouswithaSASdatafileandhasamembertypeofDATA.YoucanusePROCSQLtablesasinputintoDATAstepsandprocedures.ArowinatableisthesameasanobservationinaSASdatafile.Acolumnisthesameasavariable.

1.5SQLProcedureCodingConventions
SQLstatementsaredividedintoclauses.Forexample,themostbasicSELECTstatementcontainstheSELECTandFROMclauses.ItemswithinclausesareseparatedwithcommasinSQL,notwithblanksasintheSASSystem.
TheSELECTstatement,whichisusedtoretrievedata,alsooutputsthedataautomaticallyunlessyouspecifytheNOPRINToptioninthePROCSQLstatement.ThismeansyoucandisplayyouroutputorsendittoalistfilewithoutspecifyingthePRINTprocedure.
TheORDERBYclausesortsdatabycolumns.Inaddition,tablesdonotneedtobepresortedbyavariableforusewithPROCSQL.Therefore,youdonotneedtousetheSORTprocedurewithyourPROCSQLprograms
APROCSQLstatementrunswhenyousubmitit;youdonothavetospecifyaRUNstatement.IfyoufollowaPROCSQLstatementwithaRUNstatement,theSASSystemignorestheRUNstatementandsubmitsthestatementsasusual.ThisprocedurealwaysstartswithaPROCSQLstatement,andendwithaQUIT（notrun;）statement.
1.6HowPROCSQLIsUnique
PROCSQLdiffersfrommostotherSASproceduresinseveralways:
∙UnlikeotherPROCstatements,manystatementsinPROCSQLarecomposedofclauses.
∙ThePROCSQLstepdoesnotrequireaRUNstatement.PROCSQLexecuteseachqueryautomatically.IfyouuseaRUNstatementwithaPROCSQLstep,SASignorestheRUNstatement,executesthestatementsasusual,andgeneratesthenoteshownbelowintheSASlog.
∙UnlikemanyotherSASprocedures,PROCSQLcontinuestorunafteryousubmitastep.WhenyousubmitaPROCSQLstepwithoutendingit,thestatuslinedisplaysthemessagePROCSQLrunning.
1.7GeneralSyntax
Asmentionedabove,thisprocedurealwaysstartswithaPROCSQLstatement,andendwithaQUIT（notrun;）statement.The*isoftenusedinSQLtomean“everythingavailable”orselectallofthevariablesinthetable.Theorderoftheclausesisnotflexible.SQLcodeobeystherulesoftheSASsystemregardingmaxlengthsofvariablenames,reservedwordsetal.
