title: sas proc http unknow host
body: <pre><code>filename rix "&amp;input.\rix_eligible.xls";
  proc http   method  =   "get" 
          url     =   "http://www.riksbank.se/Documents/Riksbanken/RIX/2014/Eligible%20assets.xls"
          out     =   rix;

  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I try running this code and get an unknown host error in SAS.</p>
  
  <p>Running the same code with a different url, to download another excel-spreadsheet works fine.</p>
  
  <p>Can anyone tell me if they can download from this particular link and preferably give me a hint to what the problem is?</p>
