Subject:      How to read SAS version 6 dataset XX.ssd01 data in SAS 9?
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

Hi,

I am trying to convert a SAS V6 dataset xx.ssd01 to SAS V9 dataset using PC SAS version 9. However, SAS (version 9) tells me that the library which has XX. ssd01 is empty. Anyone here knows how to handle it? Thanks a lot!!



libname  adata v6 "C:\mydata";
libname adata9 v9 "c:\newdata";
proc copy in=adata out=adata9 memtype=data;
run;

1131  libname  adata v6 "C:\mydata";
