    Download the sasvft95.dll file from the SAS FTP site, making sure that you use the correct file:

    At the prompt Do you want to open or save this file?, click Save.

    If SAS Foundation 9.3 is installed on your system

    Obtain a copy of the file from the resource folder under your SAS Foundation installation folder. Navigate to one of the following paths, depending on your system architecture, and copy the file.
