thanks for the responses. I bring up SAS studio from scratch (including starting the Oracle VM VirtualBox), then I select a program that the teacher gave us, it is listed in the right hand side of SAS Studio and lives in the myfolders directory on my server. I try to run the prgram but it does not work. I then go to Edit Autoexec file, select run, (it runs successfully) then I go back and re-run the program and this time it runs. So I'm guessing the autoexec did not run, or am i missing something? Here is one of the sampels I tried: /********************************************************************/ /* This program uses an INFILE statement to read a raw data file. */ /* The INFILE statement includes a full path for Microsoft Windows. */ /* */ /* For UNIX or SAS onDemand: */ /* Replace the INFILE statement with the following statement: */ /* infile "&path/newemps.csv" dlm=','; */ /* */ /* For z/OS: */ /* Replace the INFILE statement with the following statement: */ /* infile "&path..rawdata(newemps)" dlm=','; */ /********************************************************************/ daat work.newsalesemps; length First_Name $ 12 Last_Name $ 18 Job_Title $ 25; infile "&path\newemps.csv" dlm=','; input First_Name $ Last_Name $ Job_Title $ Salary; run; proc print data=work.newsalesemps run; proc means data=work.newsalesemps average min; var Salary; run; thanks
