SAS Package Reader Requirements

The following additional software is required in order to run the SAS Package Reader application:

Java Runtime Environment

To install and run the SAS Package Reader application, you must have the Sun Java 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition, v 1.4.1.

Web Browser

For package entries that are viewable via a Web browser, you must have a Web browser installed on your system. All files, with the exception of SAS data sets, are passed to the Web browser for viewing. For example, if you are trying to read a file that is in Portable Document Format (.pdf) and you do not have Acrobat Reader installed, the browser will be unable to read the file and will prompt you for a location to which the file can be saved.
