Special Considerations for SAS/AF Programmers under Windows

Controlling the Appearance and Behavior of SAS

SAS under Windows provides SAS/AF programmers with extensive control over the appearance and behavior of the main SAS window. You can:

use SAS system options and windowing environment commands to control the appearance of the main SAS window
call external dynamic link libraries (DLLs) using the DATA step or SAS Component Language (SCL) commands
design, save, and load custom toolbar controls
immediately invoke SAS/AF programs when you start SAS
distribute the minimum subset of SAS files needed to run a particular SAS/AF application
associate your own logo and icons with your SAS/AF applications
use SCL code to send electronic mail to other users
invoke a web browser to view documents online.
