ERROR: Error in the LIBNAME statement. ERROR: Libname _IMEX_ is not assigned The error can appear with code that works in SAS 8. The problem occurs because SAS 9 attempts to update the xls or mdb file in place. When it has an incorrect extension, the JET engine fails. To resolve the problem, rename the file to the correct extension.

Your SAS Stored Process failed. It worked when in SAS Enterprise Guide! How could this disaster have happened? If you check the log, you may http://www.yqcomputer.com/1169_8895_1.htm see an error similar to the following about the LIBNAME not assigned. In this case, the PROC Report was using data called Sales_Candy_History from the MYLIB library. When executing the code, SAS was not able to determine is not where the data table was located. It could not find the library. Assigning the Libname Most likely you need to add the library to the stored process code and test again. For a stored process, you can use a metadata library or a file system library. A file system library is what I think of as a BASE SAS library. The code looks like this: LIBNAME Name "File System Path "; Example: LIBNAME MyLib "d:/data/public"; If you use this is not assigned LIBNAME statement you have to make sure that file system permissions are available to the stored process or other users. Most likely having the data on your local C drive is not going to work. However, if the directory is on a common server that has open permissions, then you are probably okay. Generally when creating a stored process in SAS Enterprise, you want to use the Metadata library. Metadata libraries are created in the SAS Management Console by a SAS Administrator (or someone with appropriate permissions.) The LIBNAME statement looks like this one: LIBNAME YourName meta library="Metadata Name "; Example: LIBNAME MyLib meta library="Candy Shop"; You may wonder how I knew to use Candy Shop as the library value. Here's what my SAS Enterprise Guide session looks like. You can see the assigned libraries to the left. The first library is named Candy Shop. Still Didn't Work? If this does not work, you may have access to the library using your Enterprise Guide profile connection, but the stored process may not have authorization to use the library. You may need to talk to your SAS administrator about permission settings or if there is a preferred library.
