Is there a way in SAS EG 8.2 to change on which server all programs in a project should run?

 

When I'm connected to the Internet I prefer to run on SASApp server but when I'm not connected I prefer to run ont local server installed on my laptop. Of course I could go and switch between server in each and every program, but it would be very covenient if this could be done in just one place.

 

Does anyone know if it's possible?

This might be too heavy of a process, but you can use the Tools->Project Maintenance tool to replace all references of SASApp to Local. It requires that you close the project file, run the tool, and then the project file is updated with the new references.

Huh?  Doesn't it just run on the server you are currently connected to?  Why would which server to be used be stored in the EG project file?

It seems that you are right, Tom! When I have no connection to "sasmeta", and chose "no profile" at start up, it seem that all my programs switch to "Local" instead of "SASApp1". So this is not actually an issue for me any more!
