Programming in SAS has always been the biggest obstacle for Analysts. This course will demonstrate an inciedlble new tool that will allow you to create reports, statistics, graphs and assemble data In seconds flat. This software will also build the program for you with perfect syntax. You don't have to code anything. This Is the best tool SAS Institute has developed for day to day SAS user needs. You're programming and programs Will never be the same again. Folks, this is better than sliced bread. Notice Merlin. He is your personal assistant who can guide you through your uae of Enterprise Guide. Note: It is best to have the appropriate multimedia computer system to make uae of this feature. You will be prompted to enter a name for your Project. S1artlng Enterprise Guide - ~ Locate the _.. Icon or selection on your Start Menu. Click It to bring up the splash screen. We will uae Project 1 for this demonstration. The application will load. Projects Everything you do in Enterprise Guide is done In a project. These are similar to folders that can contain many types of analysis. It Is possible to have several project folders. Many people don't just work on one project at a time. This software is designed to allow you to manage multiple analytical projects on your machine. You can switch between projects as required. 399

2 Now that we have a project, we must insert some data into the project so we can analyze it. Select the Insert pull down menu and The following prompt window will appear, asking you to select data. Data can come from almost anywhere, including tables from relational databases stored on other operating systems. Notice the data set demograf Usted in the upper left comer of the desktop as part of Project 1. There are many pull down menus available to do all of your work in Enterprise Guide. No coding is necessary. An overview of all of the items will give you e better feel as to what the software will be able to do. File Menu Select the DEMOGRAF data set from the COUI"$8 library (see your instructor for specific locations) and click I'''V!i:ii~"l Enterprise Guide will now analyze the data, determining variables avarable and their types. When finished, the data wid be loaded onto the desktop. Edit Menu 400

3 Insert Menu Code Menu FonnatMenu Tools Menu Deta Menu Window Menu Analysis Menu Help Menu Basic Analysis On Your Data Graph Menu Let's perfonn a simple analysis on the data to demonstrate the power of this software. Given the data we have loaded, we will create a sinple Frequency Analysis on the variable Status. Select the Analysis pull down menu 401

The variables available are listed on the left and are color and symbol coded based on nume~c or character attributes. The Frequency attributes are listed in the middle and some simple Instructions are listed on the right.

Exporting Code Many analysts and programmers use Enterprise Guide for quick creation of SAS programs that can be used in a standard SAS 403
