Hello

In following code I get a warning.

Why is this warning coming??

(My version is SAS enterprise 5.1)

I am looking at my code, and, for some reason, I used

ods path (prepend) work.templat (update);

work.templat is not a typo. When I was writing that code, I had another problem and used Chris Hemedinger's reply to solve it: PROC TEMPLATE Error Message - Unable to Write to Template Store. The link he provided is not working now.
