I'm trying to use proc cport to create transport files 

It's works fine with me when I do the data sets one by one 

but when I try to transport the whole library the I realized that the cportout file is empty 

 

this is the code that I'm using 

 

libname source 'source';
filename cportout zip 'cportout.zip' ;

proc cport library=source file=cportout memtype=data;
run;

It works fine for me.

 

cport data is a binary stream however, so you won't see files inside the zip file.

 


filename CPORTOUT zip "%sysfunc(pathname(WORK))\..\test.zip" ;

proc cport library=WORK file=CPORTOUT memtype=cat;run;
 
libname TMP "%sysfunc(pathname(WORK))\..";

proc cimport file=CPORTOUT lib=TMP; run;

NOTE: Entry INDUSTRY_CODE_DESC.FORMATC has been imported.
