Hello all,
May I ask where SAS will search the SASxxx.cfg file automatically?
Thanks!

It depends a little on your OS, here's the Unix documentation.
proc options option=config value;run;
Did you read the documentation I linked you to?
Hello Reeza,
I am still reading it now. lots of information in the documentation. also I think I don't have permission to change the cfg file.I am a programmer.
I have another quesiton for you, there is always a cfg file(Let's call it config1) at C:\Program Files\SASHome\SASFoundation\9.3,in the file always write:
-config "C:\Program Files\SASHome\SASFoundation\9.3\nls\en\sasv9.cfg" (I don't have permission change it,I am a programmer)
and in the file: "C:\Program Files\SASHome\SASFoundation\9.3\nls\en\sasv9.cfg"(Let's call it config2),the real options were wrote inside. ....why not write all config in config1 but in config2 insdead?
Thank you!

What happens if you had multiple languages?
This provides the mechanism to have a default somewhere and then customized versions in the language section.
If you don't have permissions and are 'just a programmer' then I wouldn't worry about the config file. To be frank the questions you've been asking are more administration related and not SAS 'programming' related so...
