Hi,

 

When I store user-defined formats permanently, I define the location of where they are stored. So when I want to view them, I can do something like:

libname myfmtlib 'c:\SAS\mylib';
proc format library=myfmtlib fmtlib;
run;

How do I do this if I want to access the location of where SAS defined dates, comma etc if I don't know the path of where they are stored?

 

I have tried View -> Explorer -> Work, there is no Format catalog. 

Thanks
