UNZIP ZIPX CODE
So I have written the SAS code to make the subdir’s and move the files to their new home.
UNZIP ZIPX ZIP
Now I have a trimmed down directory with only a copy of the original zip files that I can use as I see fit, my next idea was to extract them all to a relative folder of the location but instead of myfile.zip I would place all the data in myfile.X folder again relative to each *.zip file found. I then found a purge empty directory script cut off the excess limbs. I then added *.zip files to my robocopy command. In my case I have cloned our file systems with a robocopy command to a sub directory placed at the root level, I used a few excludes to not get any race conditions etc. I am back on this project after a few months on other things and now, I am lost again with your sample code. * create a report of the ZIP contents */Īnd for example I have tried these lines of code and a few variations but it does not work.įilename xl "D:\MyFileSystem\Excel\CollectorList.xls"
IsFolder = (first(reverse(trim(memname)))='/') * check for trailing / in folder name */
UNZIP ZIPX ZIP FILE
* Read the "members" (files) from the ZIP file */ This code: filename inzip ZIP "D:\MyFileSystem\This_zipped_file.zip" I want to copy just from the actual files, and not the folder-level entries.' I am not sure but are you manually opening the zip file to put it in the work folder? I have an assignment to work with and find metadata on my entire 2TB network share and have a count of multiple K zip files to open and wanted to make sure this process could auto read, and extract the data without manually opening the files. Notice how I can use the "member" syntax (fileref with the file I want in parentheses) to address a specific file in the ZIP archive. You wrote: "With this information, I can now 'copy" the XLSX file out of the ZIP file and then import it into a SAS data set.
HI I am not getting the second part to work where you read in a file. NOTE: The SAS System stopped processing this step because of errors. What is this error?ġ31 filename inzip ZIP "c:\users\pmiller\documents\be_output\be_output.zip" ġ32 filename xl "c:\users\pmiller\documents\be_output\may 2013 be monthly update.xml" ġ33 /* hat tip: "data _null_" on SAS-L */ġ36 infile inzip(May_2013_BE_Monthly_Update.xml) lrecl=256 recfm=F length=length eof=eof unbuf ĮRROR: Open failure for c:\users\pmiller\documents\be_output\be_output.zip during attempt to create a local file handle.įilename=c:\users\pmiller\documents\be_output\may 2013 be monthly update.xml, The following is a SASLOG with an error when I try to duplicate your results in SAS 9.4 TS1M2. Because my SAS data set is in a logical subfolder (named "sas") within the archive, I need to include that path as part of the member syntax on the INFILE statement. In this example, I will again use the WORK location. To use the SAS data set in the file, I need to copy it into a location shared by a SAS library. NOTE: DATA statement used (Total process time): NOTE: 55 records were read from the infile INZIP(sas_tech_talks_15.xlsx). NOTE: A total of 55 records were read from the infile library INZIP. NOTE: UNBUFFERED is the default with RECFM=N.įilename=C:\SAS Temporary Files\_TD396_\Prc2\sas_tech_talks_15.xlsx, NOTE: The infile INZIP(sas_tech_talks_15.xlsx) is: Proc import datafile=xl dbms=xlsx out=confirmed replace Lrecl= 256 recfm=F length= length eof=eof unbuf * using member syntax here */ infile inzip (sas_tech_talks_15.xlsx ) * hat tip: "data _null_" on SAS-L */ data _null_ * identify a temp folder in the WORK directory */ filename xl "%sysfunc(getoption(work))/sas_tech_talks_15.xlsx" This SAS program helps me to discover how FILENAME ZIP sees the file: So, the additional step is to copy the file to another location, effectively extracting it from the ZIP file.Īs an example, I created a ZIP file with two files and a subfolder: Even though FILENAME ZIP can show you the contents and structure of your ZIP file, most SAS procedures cannot access the content directly while it's in the archive. Yes, you can - but it does require an extra step. I want to use SAS to unzip these and then use them as data within my SAS process. The basic scenario is: "I've got some data files in my ZIP archive. Several readers replied with questions about how you can use the content of these ZIP files within your SAS program. The ZIP method was added in SAS 9.4, and its advantage is that you can accomplish more in SAS without having to launch external utilities such as WinZip, gunzip, or 7-Zip.

I've written about how to use the FILENAME ZIP method to read and update ZIP files in your SAS programs.
