HI, I am downloading tables, extension .sas7bdat, when I save them to the work folder in libraries they are not there when I close sas and reopen it.  Downloading tables from:  http://www.ats.ucla.edu/stat/sas/webbooks/reg/default.htm 

any help is appreciated.  Thanks.

first save to a directory, for example to c:\temp

then create a library in sas :

libname test "c:\temp";

proc print data=test.your_dataset_name;

run;

Linlin already answered your question.  Files in one's work directory, by definition, are only meant to be temporary during one's session.
