When you use the SAS Studio table viewer with Google Chrome version 55.0.2883.87 and later, an issue might occur when you try to use the column context-sensitive menu. When viewing a table in the table viewer, if you right-click a column heading in the grid, the menu appears only momentarily and then disappears.

Ordinarily, the column context-sensitive menu enables you to add a sort or filter to the column and to resize the grid view based on column length. If you experience the problem described here, you can add a filter by clicking the icon above the table. And you can add a sort by using the icon to display the query code and modify it.  A more general circumvention is to use another browser or another version of Chrome.

Note: Be aware that Chrome updates its versions automatically unless you have turned off the automatic updates.
