Re: st: fdasave question
I saw no lines echoing the file locations, but no error message either.

I've been trying to use fdasave, and create a .sas file and a .xpf file

Can anyone tell me where Stata puts the .sas and .xpf files? They are
not going to the using directory. They are not going to c:\data. They
are not going to my SAS folder. And when I search for them, they do not
appear to exist.

Stata seems to tell you where it's keeping all of the files, and it
seems to
be just where you direct it to, even if by default. See the lines below
that don't begin with a period (full stop) for the feedback that Stata
gives
you during an -fdasave- command. Is there something in the output text
that's different when you try the commands?
