Changing the temporary file directory in SAS

Question

I need to use the PROC.SQL statements for my analysis. The problem is that SAS uses the C drive to create temporary files when using SQL statements. My datasets are very large and I do not have enough space for this. Could you explain to me how to distribute this temporary file in a different place, and not on C drive?

Answer 1

You want to change the system parameter WORK. You can do:

c:\sas\sas.exe -work d:\temp

use the directory d:\temp.

You can also use the statement OPTIONSin the configuration file used when starting SAS (thanks Tom ):

options work='d:\temp'
