You cannot access the following types of catalog entries through a SAS/SHARE server:

AFGO MSYMTAB

AFPGM OLDMACRO

Many catalog entries of these types are stored in the library SASUSER. Because they cannot be accessed through a server, do not store them in a SAS library that is accessed through a server.

Full access to all other types of entries is supported through a SAS/SHARE server.

You can obtain exclusive access to a catalog or to individual entries (other than the types provided in the preceding list) by locking the catalog or catalog entries with the LOCK statement or the LOCK command, as described in Locking SAS Data Objects and The LOCK Statement and the LOCK Command. You can also lock a catalog or catalog entry with the SCL function LOCK as described in SAS Component Language: Reference.
