I used the following program when I used 9.2 so that these formats would load automatically. I moved the program to the following location: C:\Program Files\SAS\SharedFiles\SGI\9.3. It still doesn't work. Does anyone know where to put the program?
libname formats 'H:\SAS\formats';
proc format library=formats;

I found the answer: the path is C:\Program Files\SASHome\SASFoundation\9.3
this is an autoexec program....forgot to mention that.

When first started SAS will look for programs in the location defined by the option
-SASINITIALFOLDER
sounds like the default for that must have changed
I have both 9.2 and 9.3 installed. Programs are never included with default paths. and never a problem.
So I recommend that approach.
