Hello @Kboukaabar,

Your question requires more details before experts can help. Can you revise your question to include more information? 

Review this checklist:

• Specify a meaningful subject line for your topic.  Avoid generic subjects like "need help," "SAS query," or "urgent."
• When appropriate, provide sample data in text or DATA step format.  See this article for one method you can use.
• If you're encountering an error in SAS, include the SAS log or a screenshot of the error condition. Use the Photos button to include the image in your message.
  
• It also helps to include an example (table or picture) of the result that you're trying to achieve.

To edit your original message, select the "blue gear" icon at the top of the message and select Edit Message.  From there you can adjust the title and add more details to the body of the message.  Or, simply reply to this message with any additional information you can supply.

SAS experts are eager to help -- help them by providing as much detail as you can.

Hi:

  Everybody who uses SAS OnDemand has a /home folder. If you make a subfolder under that location (such as the one I show named "mystuff"), then you just need to make the folder (which I did using SAS Studio), then right click on the folder name and select upload:

You do have a limit (5GB) on the size of folder you can have.

I don't know what you mean when you refer to: "SAS OnDemand created course shell" -- only instructors affiliated with a University can create courses on the OnDemand server and every instructor gets a folder allocated to his/her course. If you are an instructor and are loading data into an instructor's course folder, then you should have received mail that provided the name of the course folder. General instructions for uploading are here: https://support.sas.com/software/products/ondemand-academics/manuals/UploadingDataUsers.pdf
