Main problem I've seen is with scheduling projects. Problem 1: You've got to move the vb script to a permanent location that doesn't disappear when the user logs out. Beyond the ability of most users :-(. Problem 2: I'm not sure if the scheduler doesn't load the users profile at all or if the scheduler runs the project before the profile has loaded, but the project doesn't run. It also screws up the users EG profile by writing an empty profile back over the existing one. Scheduler runs ok when user is logged in - with or without EG running. Also, currently chasing down possible permissions issue with EG add-ins on Citrix. Needs more investigation. ... View more

Thanks again Chris! Where do I copy the number generated by uuidgen.exe into? Clsid property or Assembly > UGID? And why do I keep getting such addin manager error message "the add-in does not contain the correct interface signature"? Is that because I am using Visual Studio 2005? Since I can't use the VS 2003 template, can you please confirm this: All I need is an user interface Window form.vb and a classlibrary.vb implementing SASTask subs. All the other .vb like Assembly.vb will be generated by VS? Cheers, John Message was edited by: John_learntoSAS at Jun 1, 2006 1:35 PM ... View more

Hi Andrew, Yes, we are further refactoring the EG interface and overall behavior in 4.2 to achieve several objectives, including: 1) Much simpler access to data, code, log, and output for any item in EG. 2) Refactoring to simplify our menus, toolbars, and project explorer (tree view of project.) 3) Role based administration to tailor EG for various user groups needs. If you are interested in offering feedback, we could likely arrange a web demo of the 4.2 builds to obtain your feedback. Please contact me at stephen dot mcdaniel at sas dot com (not posting actual e-mail to avoid robot spam agents!) Regards, Stephen ... View more

Have you tried setting the _ODSSTYLE macro variable? e.g. %let _odsstyle = sasweb ; ... View more

It should be a lot more straightforward than the example you detail here. Just try using the FILENAME statement with the EMAIL keyword: filename mymail email "JBrown@site.com" subject="My SAS Configuration File" attach="/u/sas/sasv8.cfg"; data _null_; file mymail; put 'Jim,'; put 'This is my SAS configuration file.'; put 'I think you might like the'; put 'new options I added.'; run; I copied this from the online docs where you can find all the various options. We use this method on UNIX and it works perfectly. ... View more

Dear, Thanks for your detailed explanation for the reasons of the error. Though I am still not successful in resolving my problem after going through the checkings recommended, however, I discover that I may not fully go through all the steps required for configuration. I have the following few questions in addition: 1) I just configure the workspace server in my previous configuration. I think I may miss out at least the object spawner configuration. Besides this one, are there any other servers I need to setup/configure? Is Stored Process Server necessary to setup? Are there any steps by steps guide to perform the application server setup? Where can I find this guideline? 2) What is 'SASMain' mentioned in previous response. Is it the object spawner? 2) What account should I use to login for connection testing? sastrust or sasadm? Are there any differences? Thanks very much ... View more

Wow ... thanks ... it's not something I would have easily guessed at or likely worked my way through. Thanks ! Serge ... View more

Hi Chris, I have another question, under ISASTaskDescription, where does the Clsid come from, here's the example from the SAS custom task page, Public ReadOnly Property Clsid() As String Implements SAS.EG.AddIns.ISASTaskDescription.Clsid Get Clsid = "7c02a543-9187-40ef-a835-b59420ce6fb9" End Get End Property Thanks, John ...

Bang, bang, wrong again. One of these days, I'll get it right. So, Eric, I understand you to say that Jack should change his code to something like: define totcost / sum 'Total Cost' width=10 format=comma10.2 style={tagattr='type:number format:#,##0.00'}; The format=comma10.2 would stay the same. In my case, I would do something similar? define totcost / sum 'Total Cost' width=10 format=percent10.2 style={tagattr='type:number format:#,##0.00%'}; say (assuming I wanted a really, really big percent here). And, since I downloaded the tagset last week, along with with bunch of pdf papers and presentations, the tagset would be current. ... View more
