schedule task in sas eg

[Cyn]

Im using SAS Enterprise Guide 4.1

When I try to run these two lines of code in VBScript:

Set Application = WScript.CreateObject("SASEGObjectModel.Application.4")
WScript.Echo Application.Name & ", Version: " & Application.Version

I receive the error below.

Error: could not locate automation class named "SASEGObjectModel.Application.4.1".
Code: 80020009
Source: WScript.Createobject

If I change to Set Application = CreateObject("SASEGObjectModel.Application.4"), I receive the error below:-

Error: ActiveX component can't create object: 'SASEGObjectModel.Application.4'

Code: 800A01AD

Source: Microsoft VBScript runtime error

I'm running on window 7 32 bit.

Appreciate the help.

This might be an installation issue, where the SAS EG scripting model isn't registered.  Can you run this command (from a Windows command prompt) and try again?

C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322\RegAsm.exe /codebase /tlb "C:\Program Files\SAS\Enterprise Guide 4\SASEGScripting.DLL"

You might need to change some of the paths to fit your system.

Then here is a test script:

Option Explicit

Dim App

On Error Resume Next

Set App = CreateObject("SASEGObjectModel.Application.4")

If (App Is Nothing) Then

   Dim strmsg

   Dim errNum

   If Err.Number <> 0 Then

       strmsg = "Error #" & Hex(Err.Number) & " " & Err.Description

                                 Wscript.Echo("Cannot create SASEGObjectModel.Application.4: " & strmsg)

                End If

End If

Thanks Chris, It works!
