Include statement with location outside unix

tjsari — Fri, 18 May 2018 14:25:09 GMT

I have SAS EG and I want to use the %include statement to call a SAS script that is saved outside UNIX (in a shared drive). I would like to do this without having to move the scripts into UNIX.

SAS has to have a way to access the file, so it has to be somewhere it has access to via a shared drive or on unix. If the 'shared drive' is not accessible from SAS you have to move it from Unix. To determine what's accessible you'll have to discuss this with your IT team.

%include works from the file system, so any resource that you want to include from has to be mounted on your UNIX.
