List of filenames within a folder

[sathya66]

Hi all,

How to get a list of filename within a folder. please can you suggest with sas program.

We disabled XCMD so below logic won't work.

We are planning to implement custom functions in near future.

Thanks,

SS

The code sample documented here doesn't require XCMD. You will need to amend the code a bit so it doesn't also list all files in sub-folders but does list all files and not only the ones with a specific suffix.

You did that ON PURPOSE?

How about cutting off your left pinky because you didn't need it today?
