I am using SAS Studio (SAS University Edition)

I started the new session but error is still the same.

I am unable to assign a libref through libname statement.

 

libname libsas "/folders/myshortcuts/s2/";
data work.out;
set libsas.abc;

run;

 

ERROR:

File LIBSAS.ABC.DATA does not exist

 

abc.xlsx data is physical present under S2 and is visible in myshorts in sas studio.Please refe the screenshot attached.

Libname without any additional options works only for SAS data sets, not for non-SAS file formats.
