Problem Note 42492: An error occurs when you use the DATECOPY option in the DOWNLOAD or UPLOAD procedures

DetailsAboutRate It

In SAS/CONNECT® software, the UPLOAD and DOWNLOAD procedures require that the DATECOPY option appear at the end of the statement. Therefore, an error occurs if you use the DATECOPY option before the end of the statement, as shown below:

proc download datecopy after='31Dec2010'd inlib=in outlib=out;
run;

The following errors occur:
ERROR 79-322: Expecting a V6TRANSPORT.

ERROR 22-322: Syntax error, expecting one of the following:  
AFTER, CONNECTSTATUS, CONSTRAINT, CSTATUS, DATA, DATECOPY, EXTENDSN, 
INDEX, OUT, STATUS, TRANIN, TRANNET, TRANOUT, V6TRANSPORT.

ERROR 76-322: Syntax error, statement will be ignored.
To correct the problem, put the DATECOPY option at the end of PROC UPLOAD and PROC DOWNLOAD statements, as shown in the following example:

proc download after='31Dec2010'd inlib=in outlib=out datecopy;
run;
