If SAS 9.0 is expired and the SAS Renewal Tool does not
accept your SAS Installation Data (SID) file, do the following:

1. Run the SAS Administrator Wizard (SAW) from the SAW directory,
   by running setup.exe, located in the following locations:

   * Personal Users image on the network: !sasroot\Disk1\saw.
   * Client Users image on the network: !sasroot\saw.
   * Local Personal install or downloading the file:
     Place the SAS Setup CD in your CD-ROM drive and go to the
     \SAW directory.

2. When you run the SAW, select Internet, and type in your SAS
   Installation Key and Order Number.  Click "Save a copy of the SAS
   Installation Data to disk". Note the location or select Browse and
   chose a new location.

    * If you are updating the Personal Users image or a Client users
      image on the Network, leave "Exit after saving" unchecked.
    * If you are updating a Personal install or downloading the
      file, check "Exit after Saving".

3. To update a local Personal install after the SAS Installation Data
   file has been downloaded, run the SAS Renewal Tool. See SAS Note
    #008533  for more details:
