You must have Release 8.2 (TS2M0) installed on your system before applying this hot fix. 2. You must have Administrator Privileges on your CLIENT or SERVER machine. 3. All currently active SAS sessions, daemons, spawners and servers must be terminated before applying this hot fix. 4. 82bb97o2.exe must be run from an OS2 command-line and must be launched from !SASROOT (the directory where Release 8.2 (TS2M0) is installed). AFTER DOWNLOADING: In this example, it is assumed that !SASROOT is: c:\sas STEP 1 Change to the !SASROOT directory, [c:\] cd c:\sas STEP 2 Move the downloaded executable to the !SASROOT directory. Assuming 82bb97o2.exe is downloaded to c:\myfiles, [c:\sas] move c:\myfiles\82bb97o2.exe \sas\82bb97o2.exe STEP 3 Back-up the original file(s), [c:\sas] ren c:\sas\core\sasexe\sasmrk.dll sasmrk.000 [c:\sas] ren c:\sas\core\sasexe\sashtm.dll sashtm.000 [c:\sas] ren c:\sas\core\sasexe\sasxml.dll sasxml.000 [c:\sas] ren c:\sas\core\sasexe\sasrtf.dll sasrtf.000 [c:\sas] ren c:\sas\core\sasexe\saspso.dll saspso.000 [c:\sas] ren c:\sas\core\sasexe\sasdat.dll sasdat.000 [c:\sas] ren c:\sas\core\sasexe\sasods.dll sasods.000 [c:\sas] ren c:\sas\core\sasexe\saspdpcl.dll saspdpcl.000 [c:\sas] ren c:\sas\core\sasexe\saspdpdf.dll saspdpdf.000 [c:\sas] ren c:\sas\core\sasexe\saspdpsl.dll saspdpsl.000 [c:\sas] ren c:\sas\core\sasexe\sasxug.dll sasxug.000 STEP 4 Assuming you are still in c:\sas, launch the executable. The "/directories" option is required to maintain the proper directory structure during file extraction, [c:\sas] 82bb97o2.exe /directories This completes the installation of hot fix 82BB97 on OS/2.
