getting started making sense of the layout in SAS studio

[GKJohn1]

Hello, I am basically new here.  just limping my way around.  I am a SAS programmer, but not used to this environment.   I have enclosed a screen shot of what I am looking at while navigating, and it is not quite what I expected.  notice the file name is testj5_Stocks.csv  It is indeed a csv file that I have saved in a folder, yet as you can see, it is code.  When I hit "run" it runs this code and does produce something.  so I am getting this to work, but it is hard to navigate and to know what to bring up.  a CSV file with code?  it is kind of like having a drawer for A,'s and a drawer for B's and a drawer for C's and they are mixed up.

further yet (and hopefully, you can tell from the picture), there are names of codes/files along the top (you will not a program_2_27_21_20.csv and ones going down on the left (Iwm.csv, program1.csv, etc.)  and it seems that if I click in either place, it changes the code I am working on. 

so, this layout REALLY has me confused.  what file I am clicking?  where is it stored, etc.  I can probably get around this somehow, (just like if I keep opening drawers, I will find the right letter eventually), but there must be an easier way.  does my question make sense?  did anybody else have this issue?  did I do something wrong to get to this point?  can somebody help?  thanks  John

Perhaps the SAS Studio Learning page will be useful to you: https://support.sas.com/en/software/studio-support.html

I watched it all.  Its like the structure of my layout makes no sense.  I dont know how to get back to it making sense.

What SAS programming interfaces have you used? That screenshot shows the SAS Studio tabbed layout which is very similar now to SAS Enterprise Guide 8.x and to the legacy SAS Windowing System (Display Manager). Each new program you create will add a new tab to the right of the last one and each has its own source and log panes. If you keep practising it should soon become familiar.

You activated some type of wizard (or whatever name SAS/Studio uses for such things) for importing delimited files that wrote the PROC IMPORT code for you.  So SAS/Studio is showing you the code, log and results windows so you can check out if the code the wizard wrote worked or not.

thanks Tom. perhaps I will just try to start this over.
