I don't want users to "add value" to what I have done because such potential changes to my code may not be useful and may introduce errors.</P> Wed, 01 Jun 2022 17:51:19 GMT https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-IML-Software-and-Matrix/Restricting-access-to-SAS-IML-library/m-p/816079#M5822 rbettinger 2022-06-01T17:51:19Z Re: Restricting access to SAS/IML library https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-IML-Software-and-Matrix/Restricting-access-to-SAS-IML-library/m-p/816083#M5823 <P>I think you are worrying about a problem that doesn't exist.
