I'm working on PC SAS.  So, I'm not sure if the x command will work there.
I removed the path and just left the filename in the ods statement.  So, I
am just cutting and pasting from the J: folder.

Thanks,

Aneesah

My guess is that SAS is interpreting your file reference as a filename, not
a pathname. I'm not certain why this would be happening, but I have a
possible work-around.

First, is "J:\NPEFS\Imputation Research..." your current working directory?
(you can confirm by checking the right pane of the status bar, at the very
bottom of your SAS session).

If so, then double-click on it and change it to M:\50d_Stat Support &
Consulting\GOVS_FIN\2007\Response Rates\. Alternatively, you can submit the
statement:
x cd "M:\50d_Stat Support & Consulting\GOVS_FIN\2007\Response Rates\";

Then, just change your code to say: ods csvall file =
"st_and_localtqrr_resprate&iter..csv";

Hopefully that works, -Matt

Can someone please help me understand why this error is occurring.  I don't
know why the J:\NPEFS...folder is even showing up in this log.  I have not
done anything with that folder since booting up today.
