Actual data file

infile '/folders/myfolders/mydata.txt';
input Gender $ Age Height Weight;
run;
title "Gender Frequencies";
proc freq data=demographic;
tables Gender;
run;
title "Summary Statistics";
proc means data=demographic;
var Age Height Weight;
run;

Error :

Use the Servers Files and Folders Pane. Find your file.

Right click the file and select properties.
The path to the file will be there.

Then you can use that in your PROC IMPORT.
