First of all, your libname statement has nothing to do with Excel files, it tries to assign a standard SAS library.

And second, when SAS tells you something is not there, then it is not there (in the context of the SAS process).

Since you try to access a network resource, it is most likely that this resource is not available (not mounted) on the SAS server.

that's right, it was a mounted question
