#Continuing my sas.get saga. Hmisc has been been
updated however I am still
getting the same problem. I seem to have aa SAS
problem as well as
an R problem. There seems to be something dodgy in
the SAS data or
format files since SAS will not read the file unless I
use
LIBNAME library = 'F:\testsas'
Something like
LIBNAME dd1 = 'F:\testsas'
will not work and it should whereas Libname
dd1="C:\Temp\testsas" does.
However I still cannot get sas.get to read a simple
file which does work with
LIBNAME dd1 = 'F:\testsas' . Can anyone see if I am
misreading the Help or
making some kind of stupid typing mistake? I also have
tried running it on the
C drive with no luck. Thanks
Windows XP, R 2.4.1
###### EXAMPLE #########
#### SAS PROGRAM for simple file. ###
libname LIBRARY 'F:\testsas';
proc format library= LIBRARY;
value catfmt 1 = "Siam"
2 = "Persian"
3 = "Cougar";
value dogfmt 1 = "Lab"
2 = "Collie"
3 = "Coyote";
run;
data library.animals;
input cat dog;
datalines;
1 3
2 2
3 1
;
Data LIBRARY.doms;
set LIBRARY.Animals ;
format cat catfmt. dog dogfmt.;
proc freq;
run;

# Apply sas.get
library(Hmisc)
mydata <- sas.get(library="F:/testsas", mem="doms",
format.library="F:/testsas",
sasprog = '"C:/Program Files/SAS/SAS 9.1/sas.exe"')
RESULTS
> library(Hmisc)
> mydata <- sas.get(library="C:/Temp/testsas",
mem="doms",
+ format.library="C:/Temp/testsas",
+ sasprog = '"C:/Program Files/SAS/SAS
9.1/sas.exe"')
The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax
is incorrect.
Error in sas.get(library = "C:/Temp/testsas", mem =
"doms", format.library = "C:/Temp/testsas", :
SAS job failed with status 1
In addition: Warning message:
'cmd' execution failed with error code 1 in:
