Hi to all,

 

I'm facing a problem with sas viewtable window. It does not open the data via the explorator in the work library.

 

I'll be very grateful if someone can help me solve this.

 

Best Regard

See knowledge base item 59542. http://support.sas.com/kb/59/542.html

Attempting to open a data set in VIEWTABLE fails with the following message:

ERROR: No such object. Parameters passed to method _SETCOLUMNCONFORMTHRESHOLD.

When you encounter this problem, the VIEWTABLE window appears empty, without any data.

The problem occurs when your SAS® software is set to one of the following locales:

  • French
  • Italian
  • Polish

You can work around the problem by either deleting or renaming the base.msg file in the SASHOME\SASFoundation\9.4\nls\XX\sasmsg directory. In the directory path, XX represents the two-letter language abbreviation (for example, fr, it, or pl).

Can you provide some more details? Do you get an error? This happens when you do what exactly? What version of SAS are you using?
