Thanks a lot Ballard. That really helped. I could create transport files. I encountered an unexpected error though. I got the following error while generating .xpt files form catalog files in a particular network drive: ERROR: File SOURCE.FORMATS.CATALOG was created for a different operating system. I researched on it and found out that this occurs because the format was generated in probably a 32 bit operating system. I am currently using 64 bit operating system. I am not able to get around this issue. I tried using the option- options nofmterr; before running the code for generating the .xpt file but SAS still doesn't read the catalog. Is there a way I can work on it or is it necessary to return to the source operating system and generate the transport file? Please advise.
