Include file in the parent directory

[ghosh]

I would like to include into a current SAS program a file that exists in parent directory.  I would rather not hardcode the path so it can be used from any child directory.  

I am working in a UNIX environment

I have tried:

%include "../myconfig.sas";

%include "~/myconfig.sas";

%include "..\myconfig.sas";

%include "~\myconfig.sas";

Thanks

You can use _CLIENTPROJECTPATH and remove the last subdirectory.

i am getting  its value as blank ''

%put &_CLIENTPROJECTPATH; 

[tomrvincent]

it only works within a project that has been saved.

[ghosh]

Is there way to get the current path where the SAS program file is located on a SAS server without using a project .egp file?

Thanks

Then, 'parent directory' of *what*?

[ghosh]

The parent directory of the executing sas file.

But never mind, I have derived it from the macro variable &_SASPROGRAMFILE which does exist when a SAS code runs in EG.

Thanks for pointing me to the right direction.
