Hello dear all,

Just a general question regarding text parsing using SAS.

As we all know that PERL is kind of powerful about parsing text. If I
would like to do the same kind using SAS. i.e. search a specific
term from a
website or a news search engine (like Factiva and LexisNexis ) for a
certain period, then, count how many times it shows up in different
articles during that same period for that company and match it
with the main data in SAS. Can anyone give me some resources or books
regarding this kind of work, so, I can learn how to actually work on
it?

Thanks in advance!!
