no overwriting of results in result window of SAS EG

[kiranv_]

If  I run PROC PRINT  or do a PROC FREQ once, I see my results.   if proc print again , I do not want to overwrite my results but want my results appended to old result in that particular session. Is this possible in SAS Enterprise Guide.

Not if you use the same program.  You can open a new program window.  Or you can write two PROC FREQs and run them both.  Or you could save the first run as SAS Report and then run the second one.  Many work-arounds but SEG does not work the same way as SAS in this respect as far as I can tell.  I've been using SEG exclusively for the past decade or more and stopped looking to replicate Base SAS behavior long time ago.  You get used to it.

I think there may be some changes in this area with Enterprise Guide 8.1, due out this month. This version is a major upgrade so it would be well worth your while being an early adopter.

Do you know if there has been any change to this with EG 8.1?

[SASKiwi]

The latest version is 8.3 and the results window is still overwritten.

I often want to temporarily keep a report available that would be overwritten by running a portion of the same code file. The quickest workaround for me to keep the report available is, while on the results tab, right click the report name in the left side index and "share" it with another application. Sharing it with "Send to Windows default" is probably the best option for most users and if you haven't changed the default report style from HTML (in the Tools > Options > Results menu) then that should send it to a new tab in your web browser.
