Intellisense or Drag and drop objects to code pane?

amorts — Sat, 07 Oct 2017 09:00:21 GMT

Hi All,

Is it possible to drag and drop table or column names from the explorer pain onto the Program code page in SAS EG? I don't find the intellisense picks up the objects within a library either.

Any advice would be useful.

Thanks

In the program editor - if you enter libname and then (if it does'nt pop up by it self) press ctrl+space you can choose the table you want.

Also if you add a table to your Project and then right-click and selects properties you can choose copy to clipboad and then paste the information into your program. You will get everythig like name, label etc but maybe useful if your dataset is large 🙂

Hi,

Just wanted to quickly add a note to say that the ability to drag and drop tables and/or columns will be available in a future release of EG. It has been popular in SAS Studio and I am sure it will be equally appreciated in EG.
