Good morning.  I have inherited a SAS program that produces 63 different data sets in the Output Data tab.  These data sets are not displayed in alphabetical order, and they are not displayed in the order they were created (which is puzzling).  So in addition to trying to get into the previous developer's head to figure out what the intent/purpose of all of this is, I am also stuck scanning a lengthy, unorganized list of data sets just to find the one I want to review.  Does SAS EG provide a setting or method of sorting this list of data sets?

I ran a test in EG 8.3 and datasets in the Output Data tab show in the order they were created. I don't think you can reorder this tab.

 

If you want them in alphabetic order then open the library they were written to in the EG Server List.
