Getting Started with the SAS System Using SAS/ASSIST Software

Additional Version 7 Changes and Enhancements for Mainframes

For OS/390 (MVS), CMS, and OpenVMS VAX, the last release of SAS/ASSIST software was the 6.09 Enhanced Release. For SAS/ASSIST software, the 6.09 Enhanced Release included the changes and enhancements that were implemented for other operating environments. However, the Release 6.12 changes and enhancements were not implemented for OS/390, CMS, and OpenVMS VAX until Version 7. This section describes those additional features.

Report Engine

The Edit Report function has been removed for listing reports that are generated with the Report Engine. It is now available for graphics reports only.

Build a Where Clause to Subset the Current Data Window

The Build a Where Clause to Subset the Current Data window now contains a command for looking up constant values for a given column. When you select a column and a comparison operator, you can select Look up constants, which opens a list of values for that column.

Sample Data Sets

The sample data sets are no longer automatically created the first time you invoke SAS/ASSIST software.
