Hello,

I find very usefull pandas.read_sas but, as I'm collaborating a lot with SAS users, I'm wondering if there are some plans to implement pandas.DataFrame.to_sas?

Up to now, the only possibility I see is to pass through common file formats like pandas.DataFrame.to_csv.

Thanks a lot for your help.

Best regards.

P.S.: Sorry to push that as an issue, but I don't find how to suggest new features.

AFAIK this is not possible. read_sas was reverse engineered, but writing out a valid sas file is not easy at all. I suppose its possible, but testing is not easy/possible. Further we generally don't want to write to a proprietary format.
