In SAS Enterprise Guide, the Filter and Sort task returns an error if you attempt to modify a filter on a missing data set. This problem is most likely to occur when you create a filter on a temporary table, close the project, reopen it, and then try to modify the filter before rerunning the branch. The error occurs because the temporary table does not yet exist.
System.NullReferenceException Object reference not set to an instance of an object. ------------------------------ Technical Information Follows ------------------------------ System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. at SAS.EG.ProjectElements.SimpleQuery.UpdateSelectedItems(Collection`1 list) at SAS.EG.ProjectElements.SimpleQuery.ClearChanges() at SAS.SharedUI.BasicQuery.DatasetDetails.OnClosing(CancelEventArgs e) at System.Windows.Forms.Form.CheckCloseDialog(Boolean closingOnly)
As a workaround, recreate the temporary table before modifying the filter.
