Hi Andrea, Instead of accessing WRDS from SAS OnDemand, I logged into my WRDS account and then selected 'Get Data' tab - 'SAS Studio' under PROGRAMS menu - 'Open SAS Studio'. If you click SAS Studio, it will lead you to the log-in page. You just have to type in the same ID and Password you use for WRDS. If you do this, you do not need to remotely log-in and can just start writing codes or extracting the data directly even by clicking folders such as CRSP and FF (Fama-French) which are in 'My Libraries'. I hope this helps. Best, Vicky

Hi Cynthia, Thanks for your response. I just received a support from WRDS and now I can use SAS Studio in WRDS! Best regards, Vicky

Hi, I cannot remotely sign onto WRDS from SAS Studio OnDemand. I am using my personal PC (Mac) from outside the campus, and it seems that it is due to the proxy related connection problem. Following are the codes I used: %let wrds=wrds-cloud.wharton.upenn.edu 4016; options comamid=TCP remote=WRDS; signon username=_prompt_; and %let wrds=wrds-cloud.wharton.upenn.edu 4016; options comamid=TCP remote=WRDS; signon username=xxxx password="xxxxxx"; I was able to log into WRDS when I used the second code on campus using SAS software installed in the university PC. However, none of these are working at the moment in SAS OnDemand. I even installed/connected to the University VPN, yet it is not working. I used Terminal to access WRDS cloud since I have Mac, but it is too hard for me to extract data using the Terminal. I was wondering whether I can remote log onto WRDS using SAS OnDemand off-campus. Thanks in advance.
