I think that you have misconstrued your architecture. EG must run on a client (PC or Virtual Machine); the SAS executable must run on a "server" (either the same PC acting as a server, known as a "local server") or some sort of remote server. The SAS server that runs the tasks must be able recognize the shared drive in order to import or export from/to it.  The is generally the case with a "local server" but often not with a remote server. You can likely get away from DDE by using SAS/Access to PC Files, but you need to provide more detail about what is/is not working. ... View more

Adam, I haven't done one of these in quite a while (long enough ago that the counting process syntax wasn't available), so I'll venture a guess. It appears that what you are interested in is the 'initiation' of heart failure (in stochastic processes, heart failure would be an "absorbing event" -- once you have heart failure, you can never again 'not' have it).  To me, that is the only way that having a single event makes sense.   In that case, covariates after the onset of heart failure do not contribute to your understanding of the incidence and should be discarded.  Then the event would be associated with the interval in which it occurred as well as the last interval. This would also make the data consistent with what your local statistician said. Doc Muhlbaier Duke ... View more

Since EGuide is a 'nice looking GUI', I'm not sure of your question there.  Having a GUI for a GUI is a bit of a stretch. As far as doing setup in the background, you can create a process flow called 'autoexec' and set the Tools --> options to run it at startup.  You can use that to do the queries and pre-populate the macros.  [I don't have 6.1 installed yet, so I can't tell you exactly which option it is.] Doc Muhlbaier Duke ...

You didn't give us a lot to work on.  What are the symptoms?  What are the return codes from the Windows Scheduled Task tool in the Control Panel? In order for a scheduled job to run from EGuide, the laptop must be connected and on so that the process can run.  Even thought the SAS is running on a remote server, the process is being launched from the laptop. ...

You appear to have a *nix compressed file (.gz extension is created by the gzip command in *nix) on a Windows system ("\" in file name). To read this on the PC with a pipe, you will need to install a PC version of gunzip or 7zip and configure the environment variables to find the command. If this is a one-off, it will be easier to do it interactively and store the uncompressed file.  (Of note, a Windows file compressed using the OS takes about the same space on the disk drive as a .gz or .zip file.) ...

Generally yes.  You can see if you have it licensed by running PROC SETINIT; If it is listed there, it means that it is just not installed on the server you are using. I usually go through my local SAS site rep with questions about licensing and costs. Doc Muhlbaier Duke ... View more
