How did you import the SAS data?  Did you first export the SAS data to
excel or csv and then import that data into Mathematica?  Or were you
able to import the SAS data directly? If so, what Mathematica code did
you use?

I use SAS a lot and it would be great if I could import SAS data
dircectly into Mathematica.
