RSASUSER | NORSASUSER

Syntax Description

RSASUSER: opens the SASUSER library in read-only mode.
NORSASUSER: opens the SASUSER library in read-write mode.

Details

The RSASUSER system option is useful for sites that use a single SASUSER library for all users and want to prevent users from modifying it. However, it is not useful when users use SAS/ASSIST software, because SAS/ASSIST requires writing to the SASUSER library.

Operating Environment Information: For network considerations about using the RSASUSER system option, see the SAS documentation for your operating environment. [cautionend]
