Programming 1: Essentials--Lesson 2 Problem

genemroz — Wed, 20 Nov 2019 15:11:42 GMT

I'm in Lesson 2 of SAS Programming 1: Essential.

The Activity guide is asking me to save the Code for creating pg1 in the EPG194 folder with the name libname.sas. However, the dialog box has "suggested" the name Program2.sas and won't let me change it.

Further exploration reveals that SAS Studio also won't allow Rename of files in myfolders. File names cannot be selected (highlighted) with the mouse to allow for CTRL+C or CTRL+X keyboard commands.

I have a feeling this is somehow connected with whatever "mouse integration" means for the VM. It's not clear (to me, at least) what the right settings should be for correct operation of SAS Studio. What are the correct settings?

Perusal of the Message Board gives hints that others have had the same or similar problems but I haven't seen a solution posted.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions...

I assume you are using the SAS University Edition. Is that correct?

Yes. And I was also using Microsoft Edge. I have recently learned that
Edge is not supported. When I switched to Chrome, all was good. Thanks
for following up.
