Matt -
From my experimentation the environment variable SAS_EXECFILEPATH is
set by the Enhanced Editor when you save a file. So if you are not
using the enhanced editor or have not save the code yet then it will
have an empty value.

Problem is solved -- False Alarm. I was doing some testing in the enhanced
editor, and was executing this code from an unsaved 'Edit1' file. There was
no path because there was no file into which the code was saved.
