 Accessing SAS files

I am trying to access some SAS data sets to be able to reconstruct the
functionality of the system in VB.  Does anyone out there know some way
to open the files in Access or gain access through OLE DB?

Thanks,
ian

SAS has an ODBC driver that you can download from www.sas.com

 Accessing SAS files
For $99....  I don't want to spend that much just to be able to access some
SD2 files.  It isn't worth it.  If I need to roll out that solution to 200
users....  It is even more expensive.  I was just hoping that one of the
Gurus in the group would have a less expensive way (and one that didn't use
ODBC, preferably).

Thanks, though,

ian

I'm sorry Ian.  I had no idea that the Sas Insitute were actually charging
for it.  I'm afraid though that I do not know of any other (legal) method of
accessing SAS files though.
