Hi
I am new to SAS. Please can you send me the code to convert a CSV dataset to SAS data set and save it in permanent library as it keep saving in temporary library. I want to convert the file directly to a permanent library.

Create a library using the libname statement and then use it in the PROC IMPORT or data step.

 

libname saveData '/folders/myfolders/';

proc import out=saveData.mFile datafile='/folders/myfolders/demo.csv' dbms=csv replace; 
guessingrows=10000;
 run;
