As you read the other thread.... 1/ you have to deal with firewall-s and routers. 2/ conflicting requirements like requirement of ssl (supported starting at 9.4) You did not get a Syntax Error. That doesn't indicate the processing of sending was succesful. Do not expect correct error messages or notes of something happening outside the SAS world.

mrustemoglu started to mention a 32-bit PC with 32-bit W7.   This environment is limited to 31 bit pointers (2Gb) and of the 4Gb mostly just 3Gb is usuable do to reservations needed on other interfaces at OS-level.  Upgrading to 8Gb is useless without upgrading to a 64-bit OS. The found track is mentioning using a 64-bit OS. Than the trouble there is indicating .Net versions and Dll's. As Eguide is build in .Net the correct corresponding versions must be available. In that thread it states the .Net version is too high (4.0) causing performance problems in older versions of EGuide.  Upgrading Eguide should solve that. Newer tools versions are supporting 64-bit type usage. The requirement will be that all needed drivers must be present as 64-bit versions also. Most tools are stil good at the 32-bit versions running in a 64-bit OS environment. The benefits are coming from the OS part in that case. Hmm looks to be becoming a whole upgrading traject.   ...

Flavio, Perhaps difficult to explain as you are probably commonly used to see one computer / one environment your Windows desktop. With Eguide (and AMO) you get access to three additional environments. The difference between AMO and Eguide should be minimal when using the same credentials/startup. 1/ Libraries.   That are all type of tables. If you have used the old DMS approach you will miss the SAS-catalogs.   What is delivered off this depends on you (host/dbms) authorized access to these tables.   SASUSER is normally missing (hidden . read-only)  with Eguide.   The differences AMO/Eguide could be indicating you have used a different key or startup code 2/ Files.   This is very similar to the Windows explorer but is running at the server side.      What is delivered off this depends on you (server side) authorized access and the home - starting point (MyDocuments) on the server.   Be amazed you can drag and drap files from windows explorer to this part in Eguide. A not very visible with menus upload feature. 3/ SAS metadatafolders   This an other dedicated area with a similar lay-out of folders/maps. You could save your EG projects there (save as select server) in the same way as with windows-desktop. Finding a file/librarie in this with a helpfull naming convention could help to see what is happening (use properties if available) ... View more

Sas has a product Model-manager. http://www.sas.com/resources/factsheet/sas-model-manager-factsheet.pdf The Scoring Accelerators are the one executing your scoring code.  Be happy with the name "Scoring Model", at least scoring is mentioned. I Am also seeing "Financial Model" and more often the usage of the word Model were previous being used "the system", ""the computer" "the program , code script macro". Model will be new hyping buzzword. Being used as just "the Model" would be that generic it would be only confusing.    ... View more

Scott,  You are switching very fast, a real time traveller. asking with AF as background and than moving into the latest with office and VBA. The prompting framework is something generic, but has not an own documentation (or not found yet). I remember to have seen something in the stpug.

There a some good notes about native and foreign format of SAS tables/datasets. Moving and Accessing SAS(R) 9.4 Files  (Creating or Changing a SAS File's Format) As the sorting order is possible dependent on the NLS coding and the local machine there is an issue to able to definen that on an other machine. Looking at the documentation of transfering data all options have advantages and disadvantages. cport cimport can possible regress to V6 naming convetnions. SAS/connect is requiring more technical skills te let it work well. The proc upload/download procedures are reacting as separated process not knowing by default the status. The move option is not available. RLS (remote libraru Services) might offer a transparant processing by hiding the translation. You could be hit by some effects of the translation and automatic steps hidden in that.    ... View more

To create the table is the first step. Making it dynamic is the next one. This is requiring all the registrations within the metadata (tabels/fields). Information map studio etc. That part can be given and is needed as the dynamic prompts.  By the way, Is te usage of information maps not giving something usuable for you? It is meant to deal defining views on data. Limiting views on tables/colums looks something you are needing. It looks that you are trying to rebuild the query manager as available in EGuide but has additional limiting requirements. Compared to SAS/AF the application building has moved to adding a  lot of metadata definitons. It means thinking developing aside from coding flow-diagrams and processing also with object/properties views and adding security at an other way.  ... View more

For the first part:   * User selects a source dataset   * A dynamic list of columns is available in a dropdown list based on the chosen data source With 9.3 it is possible te create a prompt based on a input-table. You need to define the table and all fields of it before able to use it. That part won't be too difficult. Afterwards you can use it in your Stored process prompt. There is some behavior to deal with. If you want to use a StoredProcess Server for you prompt you have to imagine that the prompt will not use that instead it is the WorkspaceServer. Do you want to use this at several "app-server contexts" (different departments / security). And a user (power-user) has access to several of them. You can not trust wich app-server context will open. It can be quite different to the expected one. As long the content of the tabel is exactly equal you will not notice that. Not really helpfull for a working solution or maybe it works for you. http://analytics.ncsu.edu/sesug/2011/BB11.Droogendyk.pdf ... View more
