Would this work:
data want;
FilePath = "/c:/user/new/path1/path2/path3/path4/cjx.sas";
Folder = substr(FilePath,1,length(FilePath)-length(scan(FilePath,-1,"/")));
run;
Or by using substr and findc:
data have_want;
length path directory $ 200;
input path;
directory = substr(path, 1, findc(path, '/', 'b'));
datalines;
/c:/user/new/path1/path2/path3/path4/cjx.sas
/c:/user/old/new/path1/path2/path3/path4/cjx.sas
/c:/user/new/path5/path2/path3/path4/cjx.sas
/c:/user/old/new/path5/path2/path3/path4/cjx.sas
;
run;
