Setting the SASSCRIPT System Option |
When
you create or edit a remote configuration, you are asked to select a SAS/CONNECT
script file. SAS/CONNECT script files are normally stored in a location (directory,
folder or data set, depending on the operating environment) specified by the
SASSCRIPT SAS system option. If you have SAS/CONNECT script files stored in
a different location, you might want the SAS System to search there for SAS/CONNECT
scripts. To set or change the SASSCRIPT system option, follow these directions:
- Follow this selection
