SAS proc contents

Question

I am trying to list content of sas library Sasuser with standard sas 9 setup. From explorer, the library contains Table and catalogs. I am wondering what went wrong. Plus I am able to run proc contents on Sashelp.__all__ and individual table under Sasuser like Sasuser.Mysales2. So what do I need to do to make it work. thanks

proc contents data=Sasuser._all__ ;

/*ERROR: File SASUSER._ALL__.DATA does not exist. */

Answer 1

You were simply missing an underscore.

proc contents data=Sasuser._all_ ;run;

Cheers
