ACCESSING AND SAVING SAS DATA IN LOCAL DRIVE C

[u61817627]

Hi,

I have been using the SAS - On demand - version and I tried to create libname which will access sas data

from the folder in my local C drive, but it is always showing that library  does not exist.

libname sasdata "\C:\datasets\sasdata";

Why is it not working. Do I have to sas software for that?

Besides for you pathname starting with a backlash - no, not possible.
