So what is the result? DO you get any errors, or does your table not look as you expect?

I assume that the three.mdb already exists.

Are you doing this for testing/educational purposes? Inserting data in Access via SAS using hard coded insert values isn't best practice...

If you don't see any messages at all, you probably haven't fixed the parenthesis problem.

You should see a

NOTE: PROCEDURE SQL used...

after you submitted your code.

You are missing a right parenthesis in your create table code line.

Once there it works for me. I use MS Access 2013 on SAS 9.4.
