How to download a password protected .XPT file from SAS Studio

rmacarthur — Sun, 23 Apr 2017 18:20:23 GMT

The code we're working with generates a password protected SAS TRASPORT file .XPT in SAS Studio, and the file is produced and saved in the WORK folder. How can I download the .XPT file, as an .XPT file, so it can be transported? I see no option for that. Only options are to change the file format (CSV, XLS, etc....), which goes against the intention of developing the file in the first place.

Thank you !

I suggest you write this to a network-shared directory that can be seen by your PC. Then you can copy it using Windows Explorer for example.

Hi and Thank you,

I don't think that is an option with the version of SAS Studio I'm using, for SAS Studio for Academics.
