If I save my dataset in work library in EG 7.15 and then open up ODS Graphics designer, I cannot see my dataset in there. How could I fix this issue?</P> Wed, 11 Dec 2019 08:58:51 GMT https://communities.sas.com/t5/Graphics-Programming/How-do-I-get-data-in-EG-work-library-to-show-up-in-the-ODS/m-p/610926#M19216 Viljami 2019-12-11T08:58:51Z https://communities.sas.com/t5/Graphics-Programming/How-do-I-get-data-in-EG-work-library-to-show-up-in-the-ODS/m-p/610932#M19217 <P>The WORK library is, by definition, "private" to every single SAS session, and is deleted when the session terminates. It cannot be used to exchange data between sessions/processes.</P> <P>You need to store your data in a permanent library available to both processes.</P> Wed, 11 Dec 2019 09:39:09 GMT https://communities.sas.com/t5/Graphics-Programming/How-do-I-get-data-in-EG-work-library-to-show-up-in-the-ODS/m-p/610932#M19217 Kurt_Bremser 2019-12-11T09:39:09Z https://communities.sas.com/t5/Graphics-Programming/How-do-I-get-data-in-EG-work-library-to-show-up-in-the-ODS/m-p/610937#M19218 <P>Thank you for the fast reply. All instructions I've seen for ODS Graphics Designer advice accessing</P><P>data through WORK library. I think the problem is that the ODS Graphics Designer should have access to</P><P>the WORK library in the open EG session but in our server it does not and&nbsp;I don't know how to work around this problem.</P> Wed, 11 Dec 2019 10:00:40 GMT https://communities.sas.com/t5/Graphics-Programming/How-do-I-get-data-in-EG-work-library-to-show-up-in-the-ODS/m-p/610937#M19218 Viljami 2019-12-11T10:00:40Z https://communities.sas.com/t5/Graphics-Programming/How-do-I-get-data-in-EG-work-library-to-show-up-in-the-ODS/m-p/610940#M19219 <P>The ODS Graphics Designer connects to the same server, but starts its own SAS session; so you have to use permanent libraries for your data.</P> Wed, 11 Dec 2019 10:15:03 GMT https://communities.sas.com/t5/Graphics-Programming/How-do-I-get-data-in-EG-work-library-to-show-up-in-the-ODS/m-p/610940#M19219 Kurt_Bremser 2019-12-11T10:15:03Z https://communities.sas.com/t5/Graphics-Programming/How-do-I-get-data-in-EG-work-library-to-show-up-in-the-ODS/m-p/610946#M19220 <P>Very well, but I do not seem to have libraries to which I could write and would be accessible to both.
