Incorrect link to SAS code to create practice data

ngn — Sat, 03 Jun 2017 22:23:20 GMT

In video course (Chrome browser) SAS Programming 1: Essentials setup instructions:

Task 2: Create the practice files for the course — you only have to do this once.

At the top of the Files and Folders pane, click New and select SAS Program.
Click here to open a popup window with the SAS code that creates your practice data. Select all of the code (Ctrl+A or Command+A) and then copy it (Ctrl+C or Command+C)

The "here" link opens a popup window at this address: https://support.sas.com/edu/viewmyelearn.html, which does not have the code.

Is there an alternate place to get the code or can someone copy it here?

Thank you.

I cannot replicate that issue in Chrome on a Mac.

Version 58 and is up to date.

Thanks Reeza. I am on Windows PC.

This may provide some clue: I just tried your link, and got that same incorrect address as before. Not sure why is redirecting.

Ok, I'm assuming you're logged in while trying but I suspect the redirect may actually be on Google/Chromes side in this case. I've seen this behaviour elsewhere and it's hellavu annoying. It's actually why I stopped using Chrome.

If you send me a direct message or turn on private messages I can send you the code directly. Or try a different browser first 🙂

Thanks Reeza. That would really help. I tried 3 other browsers with the same result.

How do I turn on private messaging or send a direct message?
