Hi All,

 

Am executing the below program in UNIX SAS and am while executing this program in UNIX, am encountering error like "Invalid Logical Name". I think this is related to file name statement. Please correct me what exactly am missing here ? Appreciate for help.

 

FILENAME 01at1 "%sysget(CDR_ROOT)/ARW/HES/mk1116/tendinitis/rk1075/adjsan/Macro/MACRO_CATALOG_DEV/v48/MACROS/01at1.sas"
ERROR: Invalid logical name.
ERROR: Error in the FILENAME statement.

Filename references follow SAS naming convention, i.e. you cant start with anything other than a letter or underscore, so:

FILENAME f01at1 "%sysget(CDR_ROOT)/ARW/HES/mk1116/tendinitis/rk1075/adjsan/Macro/MACRO_CATALOG_DEV/v48/MACROS/01at1.sas";


Should work.
