View SAS Code in the Code Tab of a Job Editor Window

View SAS Code on the Code Tab in the Job Properties Window

Problem

You want to display the SAS code for a job. (To edit the SAS code for a job, see About User-Written Code.)

Solution

You can display the SAS code for a job on the Code tab of the Job Editor window or on the Code tab of a job properties window. In either case, SAS Data Integration Studio must be able to connect to a SAS Application Server with a SAS Workspace Server component in order to generate the SAS code for a job. See Connecting to a SAS Metadata Server.
