Hi all of my friends in the community, I hope this message finds all of you well.
I am practicing the following task from NHANES
https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/tutorials/nhanes/Preparing/CleanRecode/Task1.htm
but I couldn't find the source doe mentioned in the animation and the tutorial, then I tried to find the demo_BP dataset too, I couldn't find it either.
Thank you very much
I am looking forward to your answer.

It's a bit of a mess but it seems to be all there.
Having worked with and around CDC for nearly 23 years I have found that they have a hard time maintaining their websites and links. Sometimes if you know what a file name should be you can use the search the website tool to find "misplaced" items.
It may also be a good idea to see if you can find the "vintage" of anything you use. If any of the files are more than a couple years old you are likely to encounter renamed actual files "Demonstration_BP" instead of "Demo_BP" or pages. Sometimes start at the top level of a project like NHANES and check other link trees.
Hello and thank you very much for your reply, you are completely right, they need to just put a link to the related dataset and SAS source file in each task tutorial, I just sent them an email as follows

Unfortunately, there isn't a link in Task tutorials to the Source file and dataset. there are just links to the animations. my request is to insert a link to the sas source file and the related dataset (fro example demo_BP) in each task tutorial, in this case you will help me and other users a lot.
Thank you very much
Deeply appreciated,
I hope this email works, I think if you send them an email, they will notice it and will correct it.
Thank you again for your reply
