Abstract

This paper describes how a command language, DC-TIME Series Management System, is used as an interface between the user, a databank and SAS, Statistical Analysis System. The aim is to give easy access to time series in a large databank to a great variety of users ranging from those just in need for the data to the ones requiring an analysis tool like SAS.

The paper gives an account of the structure of DC-TIME, which is actually a combination of a command language and a dialogue. To illustrate the application and the usefulness of the system some examples are given using the databank CRONOS-Eurostat, which contains macro-economic time series concerning national accounts, production, trade etc. for a large number of countries. Various ways of presenting the data, using the facilities in SAS, are also given.
