Details

After a new record is added, the interface view engine attempts to determine its position so it can find and display the record for interactive online updating. The DDBLOAD= data set option to avoid the processing time needed for repositioning when it is not necessary. For example, executing the APPEND procedure with the DDBLOAD = 1 would decrease processing time.
Do not set DDBLOAD equal to 1 for SAS procedures such as FSEDIT that reposition on a newly added data record.
