I tried to associate .sas files with sas base rather than Enterprise Guide in SAS 9.4 using the SAS Deployment Manager.
I followed stap 1-4 in chapter 6, subsection 'manage sas file types' in this document: http://support.sas.com/documentation/installcenter/en/ikdeploywizug/66034/PDF/default/user.pdf.
Step 5 reads:
'The Default Product Changes Summary page opens. The first column, File Extension, lists the file extensions are being updated. The second column, Old Product, shows what application is currently the default product associated with that file type, while the third column, New Product, lists what you have selected as the new default product. Review your selections, using Back to go back and make more changes as needed. When the page describes the changes you want to make, click Next to continue."
This is all true, EXCEPT for the last sentence. There is no 'Next' button. There is a 'Start' button instead. When I click it the blue wheel indicating that Windows is thinking appears and nothing happens for several hours. It seems SAS Deployment Manager is stuck.
It is not entirely stuck: I can click 'back' and 'cancel' and 'help' and they all work just fine, but of course that will not change the file type settings.
How do I make it so that double clicking a .sas file will open it in SAS 9.4 rather than SAS Enterprise Guide?
Thanks in advance.
