Hi everyone!

Starting to learn SAS today. I have downloaded a uni edition, running from a VM. I have found this link http://support.sas.com/publishing/authors/extras/60864_code.pdf through a training video and have tried to set it up. I drag/drop the .sas file into a new program window, then I try to edit the libname/infile to my specific file destination. I am receiving errors and have not been able to locate a fix. Since my comp is running sas through vm and not windows, would this create a problem when following the directions? Also, I have no menu/tools/file bar on my edition, is this common?

/******************************************

Substitute the folder of your choice in the

libname statement that follows

*******************************************/

libname learn 'C:\Learn'; <--- From what I understand, I need to change this?

/********************************************************

You also need to modify any INFILE statements that

point to external text files. One easy way to do

this is to search for:

c:\books\learning <---And this?

and replace it with the folder where you have stored your

text files.

**********************************************************/

Sorry for the juvenile problem but I have spent nearly two hours researching this problem with no success. May need my hand help.

Thank you!

Yes, look up the FAQ on setting up shared folders and assigning libraries in SAS University Edition. It's been a question that's been asked on this forum many times....
