Hi,
I need to join many tables with same structure. I implemented it by
proc append with a loop in macro. But my other part of the program is
in sql, and I believe it would be faster if I don't invoke sql and
quit it in each loop.
I know "out union" can join tables, but I don't know if it is as fast
as proc append since append does not read the base table. Can anybody
help me with this? Thanks.
