Is it a sas data-set file or an external file (.txt, .xls, .csv ...) ?

If it is sas data-set - are your computer and the host of same OS ? (32/64 bit, unix/linux/windows)

Do you have access to the file ?

For an external file check for FILENAME options - google for SAS FILENAME SYNTAX - with your OS.

If the files are on different OS you can use filename <fname> FTP ... engine.

Firstly try the third-side software like cURL . after that use SAS to import that file .
