One of the sweet new capabilities in 9.2 OLAP for cube developers is the Cube Job that is automatically created for each new cube. The job is used as a interface mechanism to schedule the cube refresh code without manually retrieving the PROC OLAP code and customizing it for scheduling which we "old"
When trying to write out graphics to a specific filename location, the gsfname option is only honored when ODS LISTING is turned on and ODS HTML is turned off. This is especially important in 9.3 Base SAS as the ODS HTML option is the default output destination. Enterprise Guide users
I've been spending my weekends developing a SAS Publishing book proposal. (For those interested, it involves learning how to fully leverage SAS Stored Processes as a beginning programmer.) Creating examples and jumping between coding, testing and then writing about everything, I have had a heck of a time with my
As I have previously mentioned, SAS 9.3 has some sweet new functionality for stored processes. The topic of the prior post was on storing .sas code for the stored process directly within the metadata and how to edit/access that raw code. Did you know that the 'Edit Source Code' button

New in 9.3, stored processes can be assigned to run on the 'Default Server' server type. Developers can still force the stored process to run on only one server type but choosing the 'Default Server' allows the client application to specifically call the best server type to run on. Another cool
There is some sweet new functionality in 9.3 stored processes. One of them I particularly like is the additional option to store the SAS code within the metadata rather than in a separate .sas file. This is extremely beneficial when allowing the stored process to run on multiple application servers. It also could
