Opening a SAS dataset from file folder: SAS 9.4 vs SAS EG 8.2

Monk — Mon, 08 Feb 2021 05:19:12 GMT

Hi folks,

I had been working in SAS9.4 for a long time and now I am moving to SAS EG 8.2 version. Whenever I open a SAS dataset by double clicking from the file folder in SAS 9.4, it opens in a temporary library like TMP1. xxx. But when I do the same in SAS EG, there is no creation of such temporary libraries. Why this temporary library creation is significant is, I can just open one dataset and access all the datasets from that library using my "TMP1" library.

How does this work in SAS EG? Will I need to change any settings for the temporary library creation in SAS EG?
