That is the same error as before. There is no data to export.

[Kurt_Bremser]

Make sure that the physical filename of the dataset file is all lowercase, or SAS won't recognize it.

[Reeza]

Show a screenshot of myfolders from the Server Files and Folder pane and one of the library, MYdata created.

Make sure you don't have the same issue with locating the output file as you had with finding the input dataset. Perhaps you are looking at some older version instead of the one made the last time.  Also make sure you are not overwriting it with some other code that runs later.

Note that the code you posted was using a filename without any path. That is probably not going to work in SAS UE as the normal current working directory will be pointing to a location where you will not have write access.  But you should get an error in that case.

[Reeza]

You can also just use the export task and it will generate the code for you, assuming you've assigned a libname correctly and can see your data sets. You can also just right click the file and select export and it will export the file.

[Reeza]

Just a heads up, most of the issues you're running into here have to do with using SAS UE, not with SAS per se. It has to do with using a Unix system with a Windows file and a locked down environment.
