Unable to upload data into SAS, choose files is grayed out

[oliford2002]

Hello, I am trying to upload data into SAS on demand for Biostatistical Computing class but i am unable to do so because when I try to choose the file to upload, nothing happens. 

Funny thing is that, it has been working from the start of the semester till now but now its not. 

I am falling behind in my class work.

Please help me.

Thanks

1. Try a different browser (edit: and make sure files are not on desktop as that sometimes causes issues)2. If you cannot resolve, place the file in a public location (Drop Box with Link?) and then you can use SAS to read the file from there rather than upload it manually.

You are using SAS/Studio interface right?

That is a little finicky.  You have to first click on the name of the directory where you want to put the file.  Then the Upload button will appear.

Just moving the mouse over the directory name is not enough.

You have to click on the folder. Then the upload button will activate.
