Hi,

 

I'm currently getting the error message that says the file I'm trying to call in does not exist. As you can see from my screenshot, both of the datasets I'm trying to call in are located within my temporary 'Hrif' library. I've included the log and code below. Any advice is appreciated.

 

libname hrif 'L:\PRUNIT\PROJECTS\Active Projects\HRIF\2018-Oct-Nov-pull\datasets';
run;

data HRIF; set Hrif_notes;  

run;

proc sort data = HRIF;  

	by pat_mrn_id;  

run;

data I2E; set I2e_output;  

run;

proc sort nodupkey data = I2E;

	by pat_mrn_id;

run;

data hrifscores;  

	merge HRIF (in = a) I2E (in = b) ;  by pat_mrn_id;

	if a = 1 and b = 1;

	keep pat_mrn_id; 

run;
