Has anyone retrieved data from a WEB SAS server to WebFocus?

As a corporation we have a mix of WebFocus and Web SAS servers used for MI. We have a need to combine in a WebFocus report information that is stored on a Web SAS server in a SAS data set. The report would also include data from FOCUS data bases and MSSQL servers.

What we are looking for is a technique that would allow us to retrieve the SAS data with the web services interface, because of the cost of the product.

If you can web service enable a SAS procedure that can query the data sheet for you, then WebFOCUS should be able to consume the WSDL and generate a MAS to allow you to read the results of the query.

Another way is to purchase the SAS JDBC or ODBC drivers and consume the data sheet directly with either the JDBC or ODBC adaptors.
