Getting Started with the SAS System Using SAS/ASSIST Software

Platforms and Operating Environments

Does SAS/ASSIST software look the same in all operating environments?
SAS/ASSIST software works the same in each operating environment. However, there may be differences in the appearance of SAS/ASSIST software among different operating environments. For example, if the operating environment you are using does not support icons, the WorkPlace menu appears with text that describes each item, but no icons are displayed. These differences do not affect the performance of SAS/ASSIST software.

Does SAS/ASSIST software run in all operating environments?
SAS/ASSIST software runs in the following operating environments:

OS/390
Microsoft Windows NT and Windows 95
OS/2
HP-UX
Solaris
RS/6000
Digital UNIX
OpenVMS VAX
OpenVMS Alpha
CMS
MIPS
IAB
AIX 64
HP 64
Solaris 64

Note: This book documents SAS/ASSIST software as implemented in Version 7 of the SAS System, and shows displays captured under the UNIX operating environment. If you use other releases of SAS/ASSIST software, or use a different operating environment, some of the steps in this document may need to be adapted to the release of SAS/ASSIST software that you are using.
