File Does Not Exist

[Nique]

I am a first time user to SAS. I managed to convert my .XPT files to .sas7bdat files in SAS Studio. I have 9 sas7bdat files under my sasuser.v94 folder. My problem is when...

1. I try to drag one of my folders to the window pane to the right

2. I receive an error that says File_Temp20.'BLOOD PRESSURE AND CHOLESTROL'n.DATA does not exist.

3. If I right click on the file and select OPEN, I get the same error

Please help, when I was converting the files over from .xpt to .sas7bdat and coping and pasting the code in Program 1, was the only time I saw data/results. Now I cant see anything.

Can you access the file, via code?

What happens if you run something like the following, putting in your path of course. 

libname myLib 'path to folder with sas data sets';

proc datasets lib=myLib;quit;

Hi Reeza thank you for your response. This is the response I received after going to program, under the Code Tab, and pasting your suggestion

libname myLib 'path to folder with sas data sets';

proc datasets lib=myLib;quit;

(I received this error below)

Error: Library MYLIB does not exist

Which means that the path does not exist in the context of your SAS session.

Possible reasons:

• it exists on your desktop, but you work on a remote server
• you use University Edition and entered the path you see from your desktop, not the one from inside the virtual machine
• you mistyped it

Tell us a little about your SAS setup. University Edition, On Demand for Academics, BI server, or single machine?

Thank you Kurt that makes sense, I can see that. I will try to retype it.

Show the actual cod you ran and the log.
