WARNING: SASCBTBL file could not be opened.
ERROR: Module CreateDirectoryA could not be loaded. So I have a need to create new directories within the Windows environment using SAS EG. Due to admin rules the various uses of external OS command features are not available. (i.e. x mkdir -p.., rc = system('mkdir...) Something that may be available to me is the use of the module function for which I have found several examples and have tried to convert to use. While using the attached code the statement: Filename SASCBTBL "V:\CORPDATA72\sas_eor\RENO_HMS\Library\SASCBTBl.TXT"; fails with the following error: WARNING: SASCBTBL file could not be opened. I have altered single and double quotes as well as file name length and extension. Any suggestions?
