IOW, an updated version of the CHM file found here:
https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Enterprise-Guide/EG-4-1-OLE-Reference/td-p/1309
The object model hasn't changed much, if at all, since EG 4.2. Here's that reference.

thank you sir
So I've set for myself a goal to learn to use EG to save an EGcode object to file as it would work in the "Save as" button on the menu bar which is in the pane of the Enhanced Editor while editing the code. This "Save as" is different than the "SaveAs" method of the object and different to the button on menu bar of the Project view " ︙► Share ► Export all code in project" (EG v8.2)
Can you offer a hand in revealing how this coded or a way to access the method the application evokes? And/or is this available to the user of the EG API?
Hi @PhilC - check my example here, which exports ALL code in a project.
thanks, I have used this code a lot. I want to go further than this.
So I want to also change the EGCode to an EGLink (? i think ?) as the first mentioned "save as" method does for a user. When a EGCode object is "saved as", this way, the node's icon changes and code is placed in an external file, editing the code changes the external file. I want to iterate over an object collection and do this "save as" like this to each, then save the project with its changes.
Oh, I understand. You want to change the properties of the item in the project. Unfortunately I don't think you can do this with the automation scripting interface.
