Specifies the pathname for the directory containing the WORK data library
| Default: |
!sasfolder \SASWORK
|
| Valid in: |
configuration file, SAS invocation
|
| OS/2 specifics: |
Valid values for
library-specification
|
|
-WORK("library-specification-1"...<"library-specification-n">)
|
-
"library-specification-1"..."library specification-n"
-
specifies one or more environment variables or OS/2 pathnames. Remember that a pathname is only to the directory or subdirectory level. The value of
library-specification must resolve to a valid OS/2 pathname. If you list only one library, the parentheses are optional. The
library-specification must be enclosed in double quotation marks.
The default SAS configuration file creates the WORK data library in the
!sasfolder\SASWORK directory, where !sasfolder is the location
of your SAS System program files.
The SAS System creates a subdirectory called #TDnnnnn for each SAS
process under the directory you specify in the WORK option, where nnnnn is a unique number. The default behavior is to create a
#TDnnnnn
subdirectory.
