***************************************************************;
* Here some more explicit instructions for "unpacking" .....  *;
*                                                             *;
*                                                             *;
* 1. Put the .XPT file somewhere on your PC or workstation.   *;
* 2. Edit the "in" libname to point to that specific FILE.    *;
* 3. Choose one of the "out" libnames (Windows/UNIX or DOS)   *;
*    and comment out the other, or delete it.                 *;
* 4. Edit the "out" libname to point to the DIRECTORY where   *;
*    you want the unpacked SAS datasets to go.                *;
* 5. Leave the PROC COPY as it is.                            *;
* 6. Run it.                                                  *;
* 7. The program may take a while to run with large datasets, *;
*    but the trip files shouldn't take too much time.         *;
* 8. Now you can go ahead and use the SAS datasets in the     *;
*    "out" directory.                                         *;
*                                                             *;
*  NOTE: we can provide code to read/write large datasets     *;
*        to tape for transport to other systems.              *;
