Problem Note 2883: Unable to read text entered into Find box within DATALISTC/N selection
list window
It might be difficult to read the search value entered into the Find box
if you select the FIND button within the selection list window displayed
by the DATALISTC/N functions in SAS Component Language (SCL).
To circumvent the problem, set your font larger just before invoking the
Datalistc/n window and reset it after you leave. For example, the
following SCL code snippet for PC-based systems sets the font to a size
of 15, invokes the Datalistc function and then resets the font to a size
of 8 after you exit the selection list window:
rc=optsetc('font','Sasfont 15');
name=datalistc(dsid,'name');
rc=optsetc('font','Sasfont 15');
