Programming 1 Lesson 6 exporting error

hdeshmukh1 — Thu, 11 Apr 2019 22:23:05 GMT

I am trying to export a file from Programming 1 Lesson 6 using SAS Studio. The SAS Studio is accessed using Oracle VM Virtualbox.

I copied and pasted the solution

proc export data=pg1.storm_final
     outfile="&outpath/storm_final.csv"
     dbms=csv replace;
run;

but I get the error

ERROR: Physical file does not exist, /opt/sasinside/SASConfig/Lev1/SASApp/folders/myfolders/EPG194/output/storm_final.csv

Macro outpath was defined as

outpath=folders/myfolders/EPG194/output

File was not created in the output folder.

Please let me know how to fix.

Thanks.

Add a / before the folders.

outpath=/folders/myfolders/EPG194/output

Wow, I did not see that '/' before 'folders'.

Thanks. It worked.
