My name is David Franklin. I began an interest in programming back in 1981 and have continued this through to the present day. In 1985 I was introduced to a software package called SAS for the analysis and reporting of statistics for a government organization in New Zealand. 1990 saw big changes with the move to the United Kingdom where I had the chance to enter the Pharmaceutical sector as a SAS Analyst Programmer and later left to establish my own consultancy company based in London, England. From London I did work for several blue-chip pharmaceutical companies in the UK, Europe and the USA in the fields of Data Entry and Data Validation systems, Data Analysis and Presentation, both for internal and regulatory authorities. From 2000 I have also being getting into some Microsoft Office VBA programming, especially in Word and Excel and dabbled in Palm programming for the Palm Handheld computer. 2002 saw another big change when I moved with my new family to the North-Eastern United States where I continue to contract out my experience and services to leading blue-chip companies throughout the world including North America, Europe and the South Pacific.

On my page you will find my resume, a useful SAS Cheat Sheet, a SAS Tip of the Month, some Useful SAS Notes and a full SAS code example of what SAS can do. I hope you find these useful and much more will be available in upcoming months so please visit regularly.
