trying to import a csv file into pc sas.
Same code works with other people here but does not for me:
proc import datafile="\\xxx\yyy\zzz\aaa\bbb\x\y\z\temp.csv" dbms=dlm out=temp replace;
delimiter=","; getnames=yes; guessingrows=3500;
run;
errors:
NOTE: The infile '\\xxx\yyy\zzz\aaa\bbb\x\y\z\temp.csv is:
Filename=\\xxx\yyy\zzz\aaa\bbb\x\y\z\temp.csv,
RECFM=V,LRECL=32767,File Size (bytes)=38270,
NOTE: 0 records were read from the infile '\\xxx\yyy\zzz\aaa\bbb\x\y\z\temp.csv'
NOTE: The data set WORK.TEMP has 0 observations and 7 variables.
NOTE: DATA statement used (Total process time):
real time 0.02 seconds
cpu time 0.01 seconds
also tried :
proc import datafile="\\xxx\yyy\zzz\aaa\bbb\x\y\z\temp.csv" dbms=csv out=temp replace;
guessingrows=3500;
run;

Can you attach the first 3 records from that file? You say that others 'here' have been able to import the same file successfully. Are you and they using the same operating system?

Your platform is some kind of unix.
Are you sure you have the permission to the file? to the folder and all the subfolders?
Can you open the CSV file with other unix (AIX, linux) application ?

I can import the same file from EG SAS(UNIX) but not from PC SAS. We all use Windows SAS and a few of my co-workers i spoke with can easily open and import this file from pc sas. I can view it, i have access to the folder where this file is placed and yet cannot import it (0 records) . I even created temp csv files on my desktop and same problem,all seem good but 0 records imported.
atttached are a few records of that file
Thx
