Have you ever needed to collect information from a website without having to tediously cut-and-paste from several different web pages? This paper highlights a cobbled-together method the author used in solving a specific business problem. For beginner and intermediate SAS programmers, this paper may serve as an introduction to a wide range of different SAS functionality, including macros, regular expressions, the URL access method, the DO/%DO loop, PROC TRANSPOSE, and the INDEX and SUBSTR functions.

The author, Eric Lewerenz, is a former colleague of mine at My InnerView. He is someone for whom I have the highest respect and admiration, but most importantly, I am privileged to call him my friend. He was nice enough to mention me in the acknowledgment section, but the genius in this approach is entirely his.
