Hi, I changed filename command as:

filename hhafixed pipe 'C:\Program Files\GnuWin32\bin\gunzip -c C:\SEERMEDICARE\disk1\hhasaf91.txt.gz'; /*reading in a zipped file*/

Then SAS said 'C:\Program' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

I tried Start-Run-C:\Program Files\GnuWin32\bin\gunzip , the file can be open by gzip.exe.

What else should I do?

Thanks.
