This:

libname mylib "/folders/myfolders/My office.sas";

can never work. A SAS library (in a UNIX environment, which you have with SAS University Edition) must always be a directory, not a file.

So do

libname mylib "/folders/myfolders";

instead.

As a further hint, avoid filenames with blanks. A blank is the natural separator of objects and should be used to identify separate files, but not as part of a file (or directory) name.

It is of course possible to use it, but an underline is much easier instead.

Your code should look something like the following assuming you have a SAS dataset called office in the folder myfolders. 

 

 


libname mylib "/folders/myfolders/";

 

proc print data= mylib.office;
title 'my office details'
run;
