Is SAS/GRAPH and SAS/GRAPH Control for ActiveX the same thing?

[Jade_SAS]

Hi All,

    I'm installing base sas on local windows computer, I have two quick questions:

    1) Is the SAS/GRAPH and SAS/GRAPH Control for ActiveX the same thing?   

     2) Usually what else should install with SAS base? I think I may include SAS/GRAPH and SAS/STAT

        Is there any reference documentation about what should install for BASE SAS on local windows computer?

Thanks,

Jade

1. No

2. Is it a standalone Base installation or are you going to connect to a SAS server or different databases?

In general, I install everything we have a license for and isn't server side. 

My installation - no server includes the following. Probably a bit of overkill, but we have one installation package for our 90% of our org.

Thank you, Reeza! @Reeza

What's the main functions that SAS users normally use for the SAS/STAT package?

[Reeza]

Depends on subject area. 

PROC REG or GLM are good ones to test. 

When I worked in Cancer research it was PHREG/LIFETEST.
