Where's SAS OnlineDoc 9.2?
The new documentation pages have replaced SAS OnlineDoc on support.sas.com. However, you can still find the information you're looking for using the search features along with the A - Z product pages.
| If you did this in SAS OnlineDoc: | Try this: |
|---|---|
| Searched across all documentation | Search all documentation using the Search box within the SAS 9.2 Documentation page |
| Searched for a term within a particular product area | After searching all documentation, use the Product filter at the top of the search results page to subset your results by product*
|
| Used the Contents tab to find a product and all its related documentation | Find your product in the A - Z list on the SAS Product Documentation page |
| Searched for a term within a document | After selecting a document, use the Search This Document box on the documentation page |
| Used the Go to document feature to find a document's URL or to type in a URL | Use the Bookmark link on all documentation pages to add the page to your Favorites folder |
In addition to providing similar search and navigation features as those in SAS OnlineDoc, the new documentation pages have these added benefits:
- a single point of access to all SAS documentation
- a common user interface
- full integration with other content on support.sas.com
- assurance that documentation is always current
- alleviating the need to know product name or SAS specific terminology
Can't Find What You're Looking For?
You can use the Feedback links that are throughout the documentation pages and the A - Z product pages to let us know what documentation you are looking for. And let us know what you think of the new site. We'd love to hear from you!
