I followed TXNelson's suggested strategy for importing formatted SAS files to JMP.
I have a formatted SAS file of a Canadian census. The SAS program is open, and the file and the format library are indicated in the library contents list. The file, when opened in the browser, shows all the formats that have been generated and archived in the format library.
I import from JMP with the following statement, in a JMP script window:
sas import data("Canada","pumf2016",convertcustomformats(1))
The file imports, and the ColumnInfo shows that there is a format assigned, but the formats do not appear as JMP value labels. I am clearly doing something wrong, but cannot quite figure out what. I am using the instructions on p. 224 of the JSL syntax reference. Thanks!
@txnelson - can you help?
