-PATH pathname


Details

The PATH option identifies the search paths for SAS executable files. You can specify multiple PATH options to define the search order. The paths are searched in the order in which SAS encounters them; therefore, specify at the front of the list the paths for the products that you run most frequently. See Processing System Options Set in Multiple Places for information on how that order is determined when you specify the PATH system option more than once.
