SAS EG doesn't run the code more than once

[2222]

Hi all,

Has anyone had the issue of SAS EG running code fin and then you make a change to the code and try to run it again and nothing happens? The only fix is i have to close it/log out and then reopen the program to make it run...any ideas why this is happening or things I could check?

If, while doing the change, you left some empty space marked up, EG will run only this "nothing".

Before every submit, make sure that the whole code is either marked or unmarked.

Hello!

How do you "run" the piece of code? Per flow or have you opened it and hit the "running man button" ?

... and the answer to your question would be no ... I haven't experienced any issues like that.

Cheers

edit: In the latter case (the running man button) please verfy  that you do not have any code selected. Only that piece of code would be run otherwise ... as Kurt has already suggested above.

Hi,

Does the log give any clues?

Do you have any unbalanced quotes?

Is there a missing semicolon?

Have you tried submitting a simple program, then editing it then running it again to see if that works, e.g. try running:

data want;
  set sashelp.class;
run;

followed by running:

data want2;
  set sashelp.class;
run;

If you're still having problems then try sharing both logs using the "</>" icon when posting.

Kind regards,

Amir.

When did this behaviour start happening? Has your EG always been like this or was it working OK and then started to "misbehave"? Do other SAS users where you are have the same problem or is it just your PC? Is it just one program causing this issue or all programs?
