I am new to sas and sas studio. Trying to import data from access2000 dabase but it is importing the data.

Getting error : no localhost found and running on sas studio linux x64 VM.

 

Could you please help ?

 

proc import dbms=accesscs
            out=WORK.IMPORT  replace
            table='history';
   port=8621;
   server="localhost";
   database='/folders/myfolders/abc/data.mdb';
run;


database='/folders/myfolders/abc/data.mdb';
run;

Importing .mdb files requires Microsoft Data Access Objects, which is only available on Windows. Since SAS UE runs in a Linux VM, you won't be able to do this. Export from Access to .csv, and import that.

"localhost" within the UE VM adresses the VM itself, and not the PC Files server.
