ODS Graphics Designer in EG 5.1?

[JenHarper]

If we are using EG as a local client to a server install of SAS, is it possible to launch SG Designer from EG?

If not, is ODS Graphics Designer a stand-alone client/product our SASadmin can add to our install packages on our local machines?

Starting with EG 5.1 (shipped in 9.3), the two ODS Graphics tasks are baked into EG.  The ”Open ODS Graphics Designer…” task (on Tasks->Graph menu) simply launches the ODS Graphics Designer on your local SAS server (requires local SAS server).   The ”Show ODS Statistical Graph…” task (on Tasks->Graph menu) replays .sgd files  created by the ODS Graphics Designer (does not require a local SAS server).

Thanks Sanjay.  I see the tasks and "Open..." does work when I use Remote Desktop on our server.

Don't have a *.sgd in front of me to test local replay of it, but I'm sure it will work.

Appreciate it.
