I'm new to post in R-help and my native language is not English.
I apologize if my sentence is not fluent to read.
I am doing a simulation study and I need to execute SAS and read a SAS code
in R.
I try the following code but it doesn't work.
system('"c:\\program files\\SAS\\SAS 9.1\\sas.exe"
"c:\\syntax.sas"')
can anyone give me some help with this?
Thanks
Yen

Did R produce warnings or error messages? What were they? If you run the equivalent command (the same except for single vs double backslashes and surrounding quotation marks) "c:\program files\SAS\SAS 9.1\sas.exe" "c:\syntax.sas" outside of R (in a terminal window or from the "Run" box in Windows), does it work?
