Need help setting up SAS Programming 3: Advanced Techniques on SAS EG

[guest1994]

Hi

My file path is:

%include "&path\data\setup.sas";

This is the error:

WARNING: Physical file does not exist, /config/sas_9.4/config/Lev4/SASComp1/H:/workshop\data\setup.sas.
ERROR: Cannot open %INCLUDE file H:/workshop\data\setup.sas.

 MY filepath is H:\workshop

Do you have instructions in the course work that you are following to set this up? The error shows that you are connected to run SAS on a remote server (Linux may be) and trying to import data from your local laptop/desktop.

The instructions are:
/* Windows/UNIX */

/* STEP 1: Notice the default values for the %LET statements. */

/* STEP 2: If your files are not to be located in S:/workshop */
/* change the value of PATH= in the %LET statement to */
/* reflect your data location. */

/* STEP 3: Submit the program to create the course data files. */

/* STEP 4: View the Results and verify the CONTENTS procedure */
/* report lists the names of the SAS data sets that were created.*

Supposing the windows H:\ folder is accessible from your EG login account through a server side mount point the system administrator setup.

• Presume server path /sas/training connects to the same resource that H:\ does in Windows
