Assign a dataset to a lobal dataset via remote submit

[R_Chung]

Hello everyone,

I would like to store dataset  in a remote subit session to a global dataset.

How could I do that?

example:

%global  data global_dataset;

*assume all connection to another host is successed;

rsubmit;

* assume i get a dataset b  from the host database;

*this is what I have tried;

data a;

    set b;

run;

ENDRSUBMIT:
SIGNOFF;

proc print a; 

*a gets no rows

Anyone can help?

To copy a dataset from the remote to the local session in a SAS/CONNECT context, use proc download.

This:

%global  data global_dataset;

will only put the macro variables &data and &global_dataset into the global symbol table.

[R_Chung]

it succeeds to get data after editing to 

proc download data=b out=a;

run;

However, after running the sas code in Unix, a message is occured:

No registered SAS sessions match target info

What do you mean by:

?

Please provide context, code and log.
