converting sas dataset to csv using utf 8 encoding

[HeatherNewton]

%macro conversion_sdata(filename);
data &filename.;
   set twonov.&filename.;
run;
filename exprt "/mpoint/data_migration/&filename..csv" encoding="utf-8";
run;
%mend;

%conversion_sdata(ambs);

I tried this in sas on demand academic and it works fine,

when tried at work sas server, I get the following:

"ERROR: physical file does not exist, /mpoint/data/migration/ambs.csv.

0 records created in EXPRT from ambs.

why is that? how to resolve?

Did you also fix the fact that your posted code was NOT making any attempt to create a CSV file?
