hello,
I converted a sas data file into a stata .dta file ( or atleast i thought i did) and it will not open in stata (v15.1)

in sas i used the following command: "proc export data= xyz outfile="c:\data\xyz.dta";

when i try to open it in stata, i get the following error:

file C:\hosp9697.dta not Stata format
r(610);

any thoughts on how to remedy this?

thanks
vishal
