A SAS dataset is stored in a library; a library definition (libname statement) connects a logical SAS library name with a physical path to an existing directory.
You do not "import" a SAS dataset into SAS. Datasets are read with proc sql ("from") or with the set or merge statements in a data step, or by naming them in the data= option in a procedure statement.
There are several ways to move SAS data to other applications; which one should be used has to be determined according to the external application and what exactly (just data, or whole reports) needs to be exported.
