Hi, I hope I stated the problem in the title, but here are some details. I run EG61 on Win7 against a remote SAS 9.3. When I had local SAS installed, I succesfully used a macro, written by R. deVenezia: FindFile, to created lists of files on other positions. However that macro does not work on EG61 for obvious reasons. I browsed for other methods and found, http://www.mwsug.org/proceedings/2014/BB/MWSUG-2014-BB19.pdf, which gives examples, among others relevant for me, 3) Get a list of files. This methods uses a 'dirlist pipe' approach. I replace the folder locations with relevant data for my foldes, but cannot get it to run. I get this error: "Insufficient authorization to access PIPE" & "Error in filename". Does this error apply to the fact that I cannot use PIPE, or does it apply to the me not having the right access rights to the folder? I tried to access a local machine folder on c:, but it gives the same error. I AM able to created SAS data sets and write other files to the folders, that I try to get file lists for, so it is not, that I generally have access limitations. Any takes on what this might concern? And solutions? Regards Poul Ravn Sørensen ... View more

Hi, I use EG61 in a Windows environment (local machine Win7, EG61, server SAS 9.3). I have never really got t good start on using ODS, but now I need to create a standard set of graphs that should be viewable from a browser. I used to have Base SAS on my onw PC, and from that I used the intermediate scheme (many years ago) of the 'webframe' device, which was enough for what I wanted to do. However have now 'migrated' to EG 61 I find this not to work anymore. Basically I have several problems: 1) I do not really understand what ODS is? Is it a procedure or what? Once you use ODS you should not use proc gplot/proc chart etc. anymore but rather sgplot. Why? The notation is different and it is a uncertain learning path. 2) I do not quite understand the principle of 'open' and 'close' when using ODS. Why is this necessary? 3) What about control of where ODS via EG puts the html files? I want to create simple webpages that allow people to browse quickly through a set of graphs, dashboard style. Basically I want a TOC with clickable links and then the graphs on the right hand side of the panel. The examples I can find all look much more complicated and introduces concept I do not see I need. 4) There is a styles catalogue that contains the styles? Can I access it and modify it? And how? I want to change the size of a graph and also the split of the TOC and the graphics pane. All in all, a little bit frustrated, - as always when new (to me) concepts have to be learned. Any help and hints greatly approciated. Thanks Poul ... View more
