You can access the sample library programs from within SAS software as follows:

PC Systems Running Windows

 

In SAS 9, select Help->SAS Help and Documentation, and on the Contents tab in the left pane, select Learning to Use SAS->SAS Sample Programs.

In SAS 7 and SAS 8, select Help->SAS System Help. Select Sample SAS Programs and Applications in the right pane or use the Contents tab in the left pane. Prior to SAS 7, select Help->Sample Programs.

You can also access the sample programs directly via the include command using this path:

!sasroot/<prod>/sample/<filename>.sas

or

!sasroot\<prod>\sample\<filename>.sas

where !sasroot is understood by SAS to be the location of your SAS directory (usually C:\SAS). Replace <prod> with the SAS product name (for example, stat, iml, qc, and so on). For samples in Base SAS software, replace <prod> with core. For example, the following statement that is submitted from the SAS command line copies the GEOMEAN.SAS file into the Program Editor window:

include '!sasroot/core/sample/geomean.sas'

Systems Running UNIX

 

In SAS 7 or later, select Help->SAS System Help. From the Contents tab, navigate to the Sample SAS Programs and Applications page and then to the SAS product that you want. Prior to SAS 7, select Help->Sample Programs. You can also access the sample programs directly via File->Open or the include command using this path:

!sasroot/samples/<prod>/<filename>.sas

where !sasroot is understood by SAS to be the location of your SAS directory (usually C:\SAS). Replace <prod> with the SAS product name (for example, stat, iml, qc, and so on). For samples in Base SAS software, replace <prod> with core. For example, the following statement that is submitted from the SAS command line copies the GEOMEAN.SAS file into the Program Editor window:

include '!sasroot/core/sample/geomean.sas'

Mainframe Systems (MVS and VM/CMS)

 

Contact your SAS site representative to find out the location of the SAS sample library. For example, if the sample library is located in SAS.SAS82.SAMPLE, the following statement that is submitted from the Program Editor command line copies the GEOMEAN file into the Program Editor window:

include 'sas.sas82.sample(geomean)'

VAX Systems Running VMS

 

In SAS 7 or later, select Help->SAS System Help. From the Contents tab, navigate to the Sample SAS Programs and Applications page and then to the SAS product that you want. Prior to SAS 7, select Help->Sample Programs. You can also access the sample programs directly via File->Open or the include command using this path:

SAS$SAMPLES:[<prod>]<filename>.sas

replacing <prod> with the SAS product name (for example, stat, iml, qc, and so on). For samples in Base SAS software, replace <prod> with core. For example, the following statement that is submitted from the SAS command line copies the GEOMEAN.SAS file into the Program Editor window:

include 'sas$samples:[core]geomean.sas'

Macintosh Systems

 

You can access the sample programs via File->Open or the include command using this path:

!saspath:sample:<prod>:<filename>.sas   

where !saspath is understood by SAS to be the location of your SAS folder. Replace <prod> with the product name (for example, stat, iml, qc, and so on). For samples in Base SAS software, replace <prod> with core. For example, the following statement that is submitted from the SAS command line copies the GEOMEAN.SAS file into the Program Editor window:

include '!saspath:sample:core:geomean.sas'
