[Hari2]

HI Team,

- I want to connect to connect to a New Library with in SAS, However we have many datasets in that Library and I do not want to pull all

  of them rather I want to pull only one data set / Specific 2,3 datasets.
- How can I do this through Libname staement. Please suggest.

Please try the proc copy procedure as below

libname existing '~path';
libname new '~path';

proc copy in=existing out=new memtype=data;
select dataset1 dataset2 dataset3;
run;

A libname only establishes the connection to the folder and creates a directory listing. No data gets moved by the libname and for this reason the number of tables in the folder will not cause issues nor impact on performance.
