Data File Format

LD — Wed, 10 Feb 2010 11:57:03 GMT

I get the following from the log:

"Data file MACRO_DATA.DATA is in a format that is native to another
host, or the file encoding does not match the session encoding. Cross Environment Data
Access will be used, which might require additional CPU resources and might reduce performance"

The code is submitted via a XP professional client utilizing SAS Connect Remote Submit.
The data queried resides on a Windows Server 2003 - Enterprise x64 Edition.

How do I get round the slow response?

Using SAS, copy the file from the remote machine to the local system.

Hi,
Just use this code and use the new dataset in the session

data Work.Test;
set libref.MACRO_DATA;
run;

Now use test dataset in the session, which you can replace to the final dataset when you are done with.

Thanks,
Saurabh.
