how to change sas7bdat dataset font

is there a way to change the font of a sas7bdat file?

thanks

There is no font information stored in SAS datasets. Where in your SAS output or SAS data viewers do you want to change fonts?

hi SASKiwi:

in SAS data views

change sas7dbat  to something with different colored rows and font. Just curious. It will be easier to check if the dataset is large. Of course we can always export to an excel file. 

thank you,

Yes, can always export to Excel or print it and include banding or formatting in that output.
You can control that with various styles.

Afaik the font can't be changed in an sas client, maybe in the Display Manager via editing the sas registry, but not in EG or Studio.
