Setting the SASSCRIPT System Option

When you create or edit a remote configuration, you are asked to select a SAS/CONNECT script file. SAS/CONNECT script files are normally stored in a location (directory, folder or data set, depending on the operating environment) specified by the SASSCRIPT SAS system option. If you have SAS/CONNECT script files stored in a different location, you might want SAS to search there for SAS/CONNECT scripts. To set or change the SASSCRIPT system option, follow these directions:
