Syntax Description

Details

The RSASUSER system option is useful for sites that use a single SASUSER library for all users and want to prevent users from modifying it. However, it is not useful when users use SAS/ASSIST software, because SAS/ASSIST requires writing to the SASUSER library.
Operating Environment Information: For network considerations about using the RSASUSER system option, see the SAS documentation for your operating environment.
