R help - Aug 2020 - Export R outputs to SAS dataset

Hi
I was able to run R code via PROC IML in SAS,so is there any way to export
the generated outputs to SAS datasets since the R outputs don't follow data
frame structure.

Thanks in advance
Jose

Dear Jomy,

But perhaps you can take the outputs in 
SAS and work on them inside from there?

To export a data frame from R to SAS via 
a file[1], you can use 

	foreign::write.foreign(..., package="SAS")

But I have not tried it.

I have used foreign::read.spss before, 
hehe :-)  

I know R is also possible to call from 
Julia, and the df appearing in Julia, 
this sounds like it should be possible 
SAS too[2], yes?

Best,
Rasmus

Can you give a reproducible example of the R-code you are running and 
the R "output" you want to get back in SAS?? It is difficult from way 
over here to know if you are wanting numerical results like means or 
regression coefficients ... or if you just want printed output in your 
SAS log or listing.
