I did a quick search on CPAN and found nothing; I'm sure you've had the same result before you asked. The statistics system R has a module to handle "foreign" files, supposedly it can deal with SAS files. (I've never had need to read SAS files; I've had to read SPSS files. Wrong version of SPSS was supported by R's module when I was trying to mung SPSS files). Of course, if you're going to use R, you may as well use SAS, but the module's source code is available, and it or the documentation may give you enough information to do your data filtration entirely in Perl. See CRAN module descriptions. Conversely, it may give you enough information to decide to use SAS I found out from astaines that this won't work. Sorry for wasting your time emc Visit Netlib
