New to SAS, I would like output keywords, basically any restricted word in uppercase by default.
In my Enterprise Guide 7.11 the Autocompletion lists choices in uppercase but they are added in lowercase.
Thank you.
Thanks SASKiwi, I just discovered that if I start typing uppercase, then selecting from autosuggest actually follows the same case and it is added as uppercase. Don't know if this will work for autosuggest on the other objects, will see.
As far as I'm aware there is no automated way to do this but you can do it yourself by selecting the key word with your mouse then use the key combinations <Ctrl> <Shift> U for uppercase or L or lowercase.
BTW there is no such thing as a "standard" SAS coding style. Most prefer lowercase key words, some like mixed case, and some like uppercase like you.

@Espresso - Good to hear this works and I've learnt something new! Personally I have autocomplete switched off as I find it sometimes gets in the way. Great for those learning SAS syntax though.
I don't think that SAS has restricted words.
