I purchased the SAS Certification Prep Guide, 4th edition. Chapter 1 suggest accessing the SAMPLEDATA.TXT file (page 2) at:
http://support.sas.com/publishing/cert/sampledata.txt
All I get is either FILE NOT FOUND or I am sent to another SAS site.
How can I access this sample data?
The correct link is here
https://support.sas.com/content/dam/SAS/support/en/books/data/sampledata.txt
You should also find the pages with the errors/mistakes in the book.

Hi
I am working from the sas prep guide book for 9.4 with SAS university. Ran the sample.txt code from this link and logged 107 errors, 2 warnings - does this link contain the correct data? Just a bit confused.
I am working with SAS Unisivity running in VirtualBox on a Mac if that makes any difference.
Cheers
SASUSER on SAS UE is locked down so you do need a different library. I thought there were separate instructions for SAS UE for the book somewhere, but you may need to search around for it.
