Hello all,

Any help is appreciated to find the answer to my question:

How sas can read sas dataset that is saved in a folder in sas studio, for example mydata.sas.  I uploaded a sas dataset that was saved on my desktop as sas dataset with the name mydata , then when i upload that in to sas studio, it was saved as mydata.sas , so how to read it and work on it?

.sas files are programs not data set. 

If it creates a file via a data step then you use %include to run the .sas file.

%include 'path to .sas';
