SAS Helpful Hints

Preferences

There are not a lot of preferences worth changing.  The defaults are quite nice.  But here are a few you may consider.

Click on Tools -> Options -> Preferences.
    Under the General tab, you may set the number of recently used files displayed.
    Under the Edit tab, you may set the minutes between autosaves.

You may also wish to change the default folder for SAS programs. This my be done by adding the following line to /Program Files/SAS Institute/Sasv8.cfg.
    -SASINITIALFOLDER "C:\MyProjects"
