Use parallel processing as possible with Eg 5.1 and up. The parallel processing option is a code-node or task option. It also available at project properties. What will happen: - running a code in parallel wil use an additional sas-session that will not update the session of your Eguide-view. - an upper limit may be set as part of the EGuide configuration. Should get attention in the packaging steps for closed desktops. Beware of the other way around of this behavior. When needing information (macro-s libnames filenames) that should be propagated to next steps the parallel code execution is a bad choice as it will not communicate those thing back. For concepts: it is a approach looking like grid-processing. Tim, why trying to blocking users from doing their work and not having to approach tos support/help them. In a well defined environment you should have your OS controls in way the system is safe for normal use. Having that done, your users can safely use that environment and there is no reason to push in a lot of SAS tricks in to block anything. The DLCREATEDIR is a good one to have more sub-directories being defined at some predefined ones without all kind of other difficulties.
