Help!

 

I have been working for days without saving my codes in my enhanced editor. Now I intend to save it. The save page asked if I wanted to save and I click "NO" by mistake, then the enhanced editor disappear. How can i retrieve it please. I have tried to open a new editor and undo but didn't work.

 

Thanks.

If you haven't shut down your SAS session, F4 (or the recall command) will return the last run you made.

 

There is also Autosave (which you should turn on under Tools->Options->Preferences->Edit), which you should have turned on so you won't lose everything. But if it isn't turned on, then that doesn't help.

 

If those don't work, then I think your editing is gone.
