Sugest you search the SAS support http://support.sas.com/ website for related documentation and supplemental technical reference information - here is a Google advanced search argument to consider using:

webdav folder site:sas.com

Hi

you can browse its contents if your xythos is up. if the set up in your site is the default configuration then you can view it in
http://:8300/sasdav

you might want to check the content mapping tab of the BIP Tree using SAS Management console

Hope this helps

Regards,
Milton

Hi

Thanks, your replay. But, we use sas9.2 so we haven't Bip tree in SMC.
I would like create base sas code, that is make dataset, that is contains filenames from WEBDAV folder. I haven't idea how write it.

Thanx

Explore using the FILENAME PIPE engine to read up and parse the remote-server machine directory.

Suggested Google advanced search argument for DOC and related technical reference material on the subject:

filename pipe engine read directory information site:sas.com

Do you know where physical path is?

Simple code could be:
data _null_;
path = "&physical_path";
rc = filename("flref",path);
did = dopen("flref");
end = dnum(did);
put end;
do i = 1 to end;
filename = strip(dread(did,i));
put filename;
end;
rc = close(did);
run;

Although, this code does not drill down to sub-directories.
