How do create format defined by user???
Is It possible only to create with PROC FORMAT and access in SAS Information Map Studio????

That's all.

Hi:
This previous forum posting might be of help to you:

There is one location in your Platform configuration that is automatically defined to the metadata server. That location is under your Application Server context directory, in a path similar to this:
SAS-config-dir/Lev1/SASMain/SASEnvironment/SASFormats

If you put your user-defined formats there, you should be able to use them in Information Maps.

For more information on how to set up the formats or issue a FMTSEARCH option, in case you do NOT have your formats stored in the "automatic" location, then consult the Platform Administration manual or contact Tech Support.
