Reading .jmp files with Python on a Mac


Apparently pandas.read_sas can only read XPORT or SAS7BDAT format SAS files while Dispatch from wind32com.client can read .jmp format but only on windows. So is there a straightforward way to read in JMP files with Python on a Mac?


Solution

  • As of Feb 2019 it doesn't seem possible to read in .jmp files using Python on a Mac. The best option is probably to get a 30-day trial of JMP software and convert .jmp files to csv or something from there. You can also read SAS files (not .jmp) in R with haven::read_sas().
