Starting 'local host'

[HannahEmma]

Please advise

SAS Studio is trying to connect to local host aka Foundation SAS installed on your PC. Is it your intention to connect to local SAS or to a remote SAS server? If it is to local SAS do you have Foundation SAS installed or not?

Edit: If you are using one of the free versions of SAS that come with SAS Studio then ignore the above instructions and have a look here:

I do have the SAS University edition, and I followed all the instructions provided at the initial downloading.  I normally sign on through the localhost 10800 provided.  That's about all I know.  Is there anything else I need to find out to ensure I'm on the right platform, as well as have the ability to install all new updates?
