Probably stupid question, but favorite folders?

deleted_user — Wed, 06 Oct 2010 13:53:42 GMT

Hey, i'm fairly new to SAS in general, but was thinking of making the leap to EG, but so far i've been unable to find any way to add custom paths/folders to the explorer like you can in base SAS through the "Favorite folders" tab in the explorer there.

I'm assuming that there is some easy way to do this that i've somehow completely missed, and will no doubt be redfaced when i see it, but my usually strong google-fu seems to have failed me this time, and i'm coming up with nothing when trying to search for info on this.

Kari,

Your Google-fu did not fail you. There isn't a "favorites" feature within EG right now, although it is on the list for a future release.

EG 4.3 has a list of most-recently-used SAS program files in the File menu. And earlier versions also have a list of most-recently-used EG project files. But that's as close as we get, right now.

Hmm ok, that's unfortunate. Since i'm running SAS through Citrix, there are some drives that i need access to that don't appear on my server/local/files list, a problem i solved in base sas by binding the full path to favorites folder.

Does this mean that i have no way of solving this in EG?
