Can I stop the EC libraries from automatically being created?  I've got a libname program to go where I want.  Looks like the new version added a simple menu option for creating such lib names (hallelujah!).  But now it's automatically creating EC0000# libraries with every use.  The properties say they are not temporary.  I have lots of datasets there, surely it's not replicating them?  Make it go away please.  I don't think it started until I tried the new library menu option.  Have tried to undo, but still happening now.

Enterprise Guide will create the EC... libraries when you access a SAS Data Set directly through the file system using a physical name.

 

always open your SAS Data Sets from the Server List -> Libraries -> Libref -> SAS Data Set
