Reading Data into SAS

ScottSt — Sat, 11 Aug 2018 16:14:40 GMT

Hi All,

So I am still a bit new to SAS. I am using SAS University and I accidentally let me license laps, so I have SAS University redownloaded, but I am needing to re-import my data that I lost access to when my license lapsed.

I have done this before, but this time around I cannot for the life of me get the data read into SAS :(.

I am using the following code:

data IHC.Emain;

infile '/Users/scott/Documents/Folders/MyFolders/EMainTable.csv' firstobs=2 dlm=',' lrecl=32000 truncover DSD;

length Newid Icupt Dschrg_dspstn_cd Mortly_indctr_cd Primdischdiagcd $ 8

timetochf;

run;

and I get the following error:

ERROR: The path /Users/scott/Documents/MyFolders/EMainTable.csv is not in the list of accessible paths when SAS is in the lockdown state.

I have tried replacing "/Users/scott/Documents/MyFolders" with "/folders" but when I do that I get the following error:

ERROR: Physical file does not exist, /folders/MyFolders/EMainTable.csv.

I checked and the folder the data file is in is the one I have shared with the virtual machine I am using, it has full access and it is set to auto-mount.

I just don't know what I am doing wrong this time... any help or insight would be appreciated!

Could be as simple as your use of mixed case in the directory path.

If you are using SAS/studio interface and can find the file in the explorer panel on left of the screen then select it and ask to see its properties. There you can find the path the SAS machine can uses to reference the file. So just copy that and paste it into your program.

/Users/scott/Documents/Folders/MyFolders/EMainTable.csv is the path on your Mac. Within the SAS UE virtual machine it should be represented by /folders/myfolder/EMainTable.csv, if you set up UE correctly.

That was it, I feel so silly. I had been learning to use SAS using that one data set all year, so I never read any other data set in except that one and I had forgotten that step.

Thank you so much!
