Can you unzip within SAS studio?

Nietzsche — Wed, 19 Oct 2022 21:35:29 GMT

forgot how to create data file for sas programming 2 courses. Did it before for programming 1 but I forgot and instruction is confusing.

so in task 1, I downloaded the zip file and extract the zip file onto my desktop with file path of "C:\Users\benja\OneDrive\Desktop\EPG2V2"

that's is the obviously choice since SAS can not be unzipped in SAS studio, I tried it, uploaded the whole zip and cant find the option to unzip it in Sas studio.

in Task 2 step 2 and 3 ask me to navigate to EPG2V2 folder and double click libname.sas which can not be opened in SAS Studio. But that folder is located on my desktop and I can not open .sas file unless it is in sas Studio.

What am I suppose to do here?

Upload the unzipped files from your computer to the SAS Studio location sounds like the intent. Not copy the Zipped files to studio.

okay, I was an idiot. I used instruction for stand alone SAS Studio software instead of SAS OnDemand version of SAS studio.
