SAS Enterprise Guide - Server File Access
SAS Enterprise Guide allows users to access files on the SAS server environment. Only one of the three options can be set - either to point to the designated user folder 'SAS User Root', set to the root 'System Root', or define a shared location/directory 'path'.
The SAS Administrator sets this as an Advanced Option on the Workspace Server in SAS Management Console.
In SAS Management Console
-right-click on the "Workspace Server" in Server Manager
-select "Properties"
-select "Options" tab
-select "Advanced Options" button
-select "File Navigation" tab
-select Path and specify "c:\temp"
-OK

Very helpful. We have been trying to access the 'T:\' drive on our server via EG and this post allowed us to set the path correctly.
Thanks.
This process is exactly the same in SAS 9.2 - however your Server Manager Node might look a little bit different. In a default environment it would be the lowest level of 'SASApp - Workspace Server'.
