Hi,

 

I'm using SAS EG 7.1 & creating Projects as usual.

 

I've found that I'm losing a lot of work due to Projects freezing or crashing which means I need to close down using CTRL AL DELETE & I can only recover my work at the last point I saved the Project. 

 

Is there some code I can add somewhere so the Project saves every 5 minutes or so?

 

I usually remember but sometimes when I'm trying to concentrate on logic, I overlook saving & this is getting annoying.

 

Hope someone has a solution because they've had the same problem & can help me out.  :  )

Hi

 

Yes, had the same problem with EG 7.1 crashing at inopportune moments.

 

The auto save interval can be set in Tools > Options > Project Recovery > Save interval.

 

The default is set at 30 minutes.
