Hi,

I am having an issue when uploading a file to SAS. I am using SAS on Demand for academic . I could not upload the file to the SAS page; it says the files size is greater than 1 GB. The dataset I am using is already in SAS format and has a file size of 1.2 GB. So I compressed/zip the file and able to upload file on SAS. Any suggestion on how to unzip files on SAS.

Thank you

Use filename zip to copy the file to a library.
