File does not exit

kngu022 — Mon, 13 Jan 2020 16:20:12 GMT

To whom it may concerns,

I am very new SAS user and I am using the university Edition version. I have tried to do my exercise on SAS and the result comes out like screenshot below.

However, the diabetes.sas7bdat actually exits and does contains column. I tried the same thing on Uni computer. It is fine. I am not too sure what mistake I did? Could you help me please?

Thanks
