INSTRUCTIONS FOR APPLYING THE PROC SQL 2 GIG FIX:

1)  Save the old files: 

      winnt_prompt> cd !SASROOT/core/sasexe
      winnt_prompt> copy sassqxo.dll sassqxo.org
      winnt_prompt> copy sassqxs.dll sassqxs.org
      winnt_prompt> copy sassqxu.dll sassqxu.org

2)  Download the new files that fix the PROC SQL 2 GIG problem.
      winnt_prompt> ftp ftp.sas.com
                    userid:  anonymous
                    password:  <your email address>

      ftp> binary  
      ftp> get README.S2G README.S2G
      ftp> get sassqxo.dll sassqxo.s2g
      ftp> get sassqxs.dll sassqxs.s2g
      ftp> get sassqxu.dll sassqxu.s2g
      ftp> quit
      winnt_prompt> cp sassqxo.s2g sassqxo.dll
      winnt_prompt> cp sassqxs.s2g sassqxs.dll
      winnt_prompt> cp sassqxu.s2g sassqxu.dll

NOTE:  Be sure the download was successful... verify the file sizes 
of the modules are as follows:

FOR WIN/NT: 

   sassqxo.dll     --  40768 bytes or 40 kb
   sassqxs.dll     --  42640 bytes or 42 kb
   sassqxu.dll     --  48160 bytes or 47 kb

FOR WIN 95: 

   sassqxo.dll     --  40768 bytes or 40 kb
   sassqxs.dll     --  42640 bytes or 42 kb
   sassqxu.dll     --  48160 bytes or 47 kb

FOR OS/2: 

   sassqxo.dll     --  50345 bytes or 49 kb
   sassqxs.dll     --  51607 bytes or 50 kb
   sassqxu.dll     --  55118 bytes or 54 kb

3)  Be sure you understand that if you install the MAINTENANCE 
Release TS050 or higher that you will need to recopy the 
executables again.  If you used the exact installation sequence 
listed above then all you need to do is apply the MAINTENANCE
RELEASE and do the copy again.  For example: 

      winnt_prompt> cp sassqxo.s2g sassqxo.dll
      winnt_prompt> cp sassqxs.s2g sassqxs.dll
      winnt_prompt> cp sassqxu.s2g sassqxu.dll
 
If you fail to recopy the executables after installing the 
maintenance, the results are unpredictable.  You can receive fatal
errors when using the SQL procedure.
