George,

SAS note SN-007832 seems to speak to the problem you described.  It
links to a Microsoft knowledgebase article that addresses the inability
to clear the read-only folder attribute.

HTH.

Subject: ERROR: User does not have appropriate...

Hi Folks,


I have a Gateway PC running Windows XP-Pro and recentlly updated my
licences for SAS v. 8 and I'm having problems. AFTER the update a
problem
appeared! I can create new "active library" folders, but I can't import
files into them.

I receive the following message : "ERROR: User does not have appropriate
authorization level for library SUICIDE. NOTE: The SAS System stopped
processing this step because of errors. "

I am able to import data files into the WORK folder and run SAS programs
there. It's the new library folders that are haveing problems.

It's not a hardware problem.  SAS says it is a Windows problem. I
have gone through and made certain I/administrator has full access.
Something interesting I noticed...several subdirectories initially
had "read-only access" I unmarked it hit 'apply' and 'ok' then reboot
the
computer, NONE of my changes were saved and the directories are
still "read-only access" !


Is there anyone who can help!?   Many thanks in advance, And I'll post
what worked and what didn't work.
George
