Overview of Controls

The following controls are available with SAS Design-Time Controls. This section describes each of the controls.


SAS Critical Success Factor Control

The SAS Critical Success Factor Control is a point-and-click interface to the Rangeview HTML Generator (DS2CSF macro). Many, but not all of the features of the Rangeview HTML Generator are implemented in the Critical Success Factor Control. Although no one-to-one correspondence exists between the Critical Success Factor Control properties and the Rangeview HTML Generator arguments, you can still use the syntax reference for the Rangeview HTML Generator to determine the values to specify for the Critical Success Factor Control properties.

SAS MDDB Report Control

The SAS MDDB Report Control is modeled after the Layout page of the MDDB Report Viewer. Unlike the other controls, the MDDB Report Control cannot coexist with other page content. If you place the MDDB Report Control on a page along with other content, you will only see the MDDB report when the page is viewed in a browser. The MDDB report has special startup Javascript code that causes it to replace the contents of the current frame when it is displayed.

If you want a Web page that contains the MDDB report as well as other content, you need to create an frame-based HTML page. Dedicate one of the frames to the MDDB Report Control and place the rest of the content in the other frames.

Beginning with Release 8.2 of SAS/IntrNet Software, if you have access control enabled for SAS/EIS software, then you need to supply a valid username and password in order to use the MDDB Report Control.

SAS Stored Program Control

The SAS Stored Program Control is used to run any standard SAS/IntrNet program. For information about SAS/IntrNet programs, see The Program Component section of the SAS/IntrNet Application Dispatcher documentation.

Note: Your SAS/IntrNet program should not generate tags such as <HTML>, <HEAD>, and <BODY> because these tags are generated by your HTML editor.

SAS Table Control

The SAS Table Control is a point-and-click interface to the HTML Data Set Formatter. Many, but not all of the features of the HTML Data Set Formatter are implemented in the SAS Table Control. Although no one-to-one correspondence exists between the Table Control properties and the HTML Data Set Formatter arguments, you can still use the syntax reference for the HTML Data Set Formatter to determine the values to specify for the Table Control properties.

SAS Tabular Report Control

The SAS Tabular Report Control surfaces some of the functionality of the SAS TABULATE procedure. For more information about the TABULATE procedure, see the SAS Procedures Guide.

Note: This control requires Version 8 or later of SAS/IntrNet Software.

SAS Thin Client Graphics Control

The SAS Thin Client Graphics Control is a point-and-click interface to the Graph Applet HTML Generator (DS2GRAF macro). Many, but not all of the features of the Graph Applet HTML Generator are implemented in the Thin Client Graphics Control. Although no one-to-one correspondence exists between the Thin Client Graphics Control properties and the Graph Applet HTML Generator arguments, you can still use the syntax reference for the Graph Applet HTML Generator to determine the values to specify for the Thin Client Graphics Control properties.

The Thin Client Graphics Control also supports ActiveX graphics. If the SAS/GRAPH Control for ActiveX is installed on the machine from which you view your Web page, then you can use the Thin Client Graphics Control to generate ActiveX graphics instead of Java graphics.

  1. On the Applet tab of the Properties dialog, select ActiveX Control in the Graphics device field.

  2. On the Applet tab, either delete the value in the Codebase field or supply an appropriate value.

SAS TreeView Control

The SAS TreeView Control is a point-and-click interface to the Treeview HTML Generator. Many, but not all of the features of the Treeview HTML Generator are implemented in the TreeView Control. Although no one-to-one correspondence exists between the TreeView Control properties and the Treeview HTML Generator arguments, you can still use the syntax reference for the Treeview HTML Generator to determine the values to specify for the TreeView Control properties.

Note: This control requires Release 8.2 or later of SAS/IntrNet Software.
