[R] Import SAS dataset error

Dear all;

	Using read.ssd, I tried to import a SAS dataset  from a network
drive; an error occurred:

> stemattr <- read.ssd("g:/olmn2/dyang/siteprod/datasasv8", "stemattr")
SAS failed.  SAS program at C:\DOCUME~1\dyang\LOCALS~1\Temp\file7785.sas 
a log and other error products should be in the vicinity
Warning messages: 
1: sas not found 
2: ls not found 
3: SAS return code was -1 in: read.ssd("g:/olmn2/dyang/siteprod/datasasv8",
"stemattr") 

	The sas dataset was created in Unix. I was able to see the target
file in the path using list.files(libname). I was puzzled by the warning
"sas not found".  In fact,  a SAS Ver. 8 is installed in the same directory
where I installed R 1.51. on Win2K. 

	What did I miss? Any help?

	TIK,

Richard
