Not able to find activity folder

Swati_Mittal — Fri, 07 Sep 2018 10:29:47 GMT

Hello

I am learning SAS coding through a free SAS course provided on your website. In that course I am not able to find the activity folder for practicing the codes given in between the chapters.

Please help me in sorting this problem.

Thank You

Hello Swati,

I tested the zip file and saw the activities folder. It looks like the zip file was updated on 9/4/2018, so you may have to re download it.

Also can I ask what interface you are using? Is it free software we provide (SAS OnDemand for Academics or SAS University Edition), or your own personal software? May be an issue in uploading the files.

Hello Sir,

I am using SAS University Edition.
And thank you for your time and reply.

No problem,

I updated my previous post, I thought I would get it in time before you saw :).

Looks like the zip file was updated on 9/4. Maybe try re downloading it.

Also do you see the other folders in University Edition (Demos, Practices, Data)?

The folder is actually locally on your computer not on the website. In part of the installation instructions you would have downloaded a zip file and in that file you should have the data and folders.

Did you complete the step in the set up and can you find that folder? Or does that folder not contain the Activities folder?

Editor's note: Videos showing each method to access data, including the one in this comment and those in the comments below are available in one article: How to access data for SAS Programming 1.

Hi:

When you open the Course Overview and Data Setup section of Programming 1, there are instructions to follow based on how you are accessing SAS. There are different instructions for each method. Here's what the page looks like:

I've made some videos for each method. Here's a video for #1 method using SAS OnDemand for Academics with SAS Studio to create the data for the newest Programming 1 class: _1 http://youtu.be/zgY4p_E0OIU?hd=1

I'll post the other videos as they are finished.
