Hi Sarah, Just a couple additional notes to what's been said:
1) It seems like R CMD BATCH might be easier 2) If the space in Program Files is causing issues, you can use the Windows environment variable %PROGRAMFILES% (which also means you do not need the drive letter. 3) I find it handy to define a new Windows environment variable with the path to R, then I can just reference that rather than the entire path (a google search will show you lots of ways to do this via the GUI and the command prompt). For instance: "%R%/Rterm.exe" starts R in the command prompt for me. Here is an example run from the Windows command prompt: "%PROGRAMFILES%/R/R-2.11.1/bin/R.exe" CMD BATCH "C:/myscript.R" "C:/results.txt" Cheers, Josh On Wed, Sep 15, 2010 at 10:44 AM, Sarah Jilani <sarahjil...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi, > > I need to call an R program from Sas.
