Copying Reports

From the Welcome window, Edit mode, or View mode, perform one of these tasks:

Navigate to the folder that contains the report that you want to copy.

Next to the name of the report that you want to copy, click in the Actions column, and then select Copy to open the Copy Report dialog box.

Select a folder location, either My folders (your private folder area) or another folder in the SAS Folder tree.

If you copy a report to the same folder that contains the original report, then the copied report is renamed by prepending Copy of to the report name. For example, if you copy a report named Orion Star Sales Forecast, then the copied report is renamed Copy of Orion Star Sales Forecast.

If you copy a report to a different folder that already contains a report with the same name, then you are asked if you want to replace the existing report with the copied report.

Click OK.

If you used the Open dialog box, click Close.

From the Welcome window or Edit mode, select FileManage Files to access the File Management window.

Select the check box next to each report that you want to copy.

At the top of the check box column, click and then select Copy.

Select a folder location, either My folders (your private folder area) or another folder in the SAS Folder tree.

If you copy the reports to the same folder that contains the original reports, then the copied reports are renamed by prepending Copy of to the report name. For example, if you copy a report named Orion Star Sales Forecast, then the copied report is renamed Copy of Orion Star Sales Forecast.

If you copy the reports to a different folder that already contains reports with the same names, then you are asked if you want to replace the existing reports with the copied reports. If some of the reports have the same name but some do not, you can click Cancel in the message box to cancel copying the reports with the same name. Reports that do not have conflicting names are still copied.

Click OK.
