Hello,

I have a medical claim file in excel that I want to read in sas university edition, but due to the limitation of 10mb, It seems impossible. Is there another way to bring the file in SAS? any suggestion is appreciated. Thanks

If you use University Edition in a virtual machine, place the file in the shared folder (using the host operating system's tools, like Windows Explorer or MacOs Finder) and read it from there.

Thank you for responding. I am using University Edition in a virtual machine, when I tried to place the file in the shared folder, it saying that the file( 100mb) upload is more than 10mb.

Windows Explorer (or OSX Finder) do NOT have a size limit on the files top copy, unless you're running out of disk space overall. Do NOT use SAS Studio to bring files to the shared folder.
