It is possible for EG to use SAS on your desktop, but only if a complete SAS install has been done and not just EG. In this scenario a %include will look on your desktop hard drive.<BR /> <BR /> More typically EG connects to remote SAS servers so it will be the hard drives of those servers where a %include will look. Check your EG connection to confirm where SAS is running.

I am referencing the saved .sas file in a %include statement. I am confused as to where EG will look for the file. From my reading, I take it that with this statement EG looks for the external file to be on my actual hard drive or can I save this file to the EG project that I am working in and the program will find it?
