Tom,

It was great to see and talk to you as well!  I'm glad you like the new features and enhancements.  We will continue striving to improve!

Our work group is just now upgrading from SAS Enterprise Guide 5.1 to 7.1.  We are very happy with all the new features.  The papers you linked are very helpful.

Could you clarify one thing for me?  SAS is set up to run on our local machine and not a SAS server so we do not have user profiles.  Is this why the History window shows all authors as PUBLIC?

Hi Cheryl,

This was a bug that was fixed in EG 7.11.  When you are running against a local SAS server (without a connection profile), we now (in 7.11) show the logged in Windows user as the author in the program history.

Thanks Casey!  I will check with our SAS administrator about getting EG 7.11.
