Hi everyone,
Since this morning, whenever I open a program (File - Open program) in Base SAS, there is a non-negligible chance that the program will execute automatically.
It is not always the same program either.
Anyone ever had t his issue?
It's driving me nuts.
cheers
Go to Tools>Options>Preferences. Look on the General tab for "Submit contents of file opened". If there is a check in that box then remove it.
How it may have gotten set is a question.
If that isn't the case then I'm not sure what's going on. I've never had that happen since using SAS 6.04.

I think @ballardw is on the right track. And there is a little-known Submit checkbox on the File->Open window. I suspect yours might be checked on for some reason. It's a "sticky" option -- once checked, it stays checked until you uncheck it.
Fun fact: you can drive all of this from code.
dm 'dlgopen filter="*.sas" nosubmit';
