+  @brief Export a dataset to SQL insert statements
+  @details Converts dataset values to SQL insert statements for use across
+  multiple database types.
+
+  Usage:
+
+      %mp_ds2inserts(sashelp.class,outref=myref)
+      data test;
+        set sashelp.class;
+        stop;
+      proc sql;
+      %inc myref;
+
+  @param [in] ds The dataset to be exported
+  @param [out] outref= (0) The output fileref.  If it does not exist, it is
+    created. If it does exist, new records are APPENDED.
+  @param [out] outlib= (0) The library (or schema) in which the target table is
+    located.  If not provided, is ignored.
+  @param [out] outds= (0) The output table to load.  If not provided, will
+    default to the table in the &ds parameter.
