How to read SAS exiting data from SAS Uni. Edition

PhanS — Sun, 26 Aug 2018 21:26:33 GMT

Hello everyone,

I am a beginner of SAS Uni. Edi.

I wonder how it can read from my SAS exiting data.

I imported the data from my 'E' drive. And the property was /folders/myfolders/sasuser.v94/bn20186m.sas7bdat

which I inserted in libname Dir

Please kindly see below.

I am grateful for your time and help. Have a wonderful Sunday ! Thank you in advance.

PLEASE start by working through the basic lessons for University Edition, as it would help you avoid such very simple mistakes.

A SAS library is a directory containing .sas7bdat files, not one if the files itself! A .sas7bdat file is a SAS dataset.

So assign the libname as

libname dir "/folders/myfolders/sasuser.v94";

And do NOT post code in pictures! Use the "little running man" button to open a window for posting code and copy/paste it there, also see my footnotes.

Dear KurtBremser,

Thanks you !

I acknowledge my mistake. I switched from a SAS license today. I have a long way to learn the Edition.

Again I am grateful for your time and help.
