Send net message with EG

[Slarty01]

I am tryiny to net send using EG but the x command function has not been activated on my install. Is there a work around?

The X command has not been installed? I have never heard of that with SAS. Are you on a windows OS? Perhaps you are not passing the correct command string?

Try the command in a reg (win) Dos or(unix) shell window. Does the command work there? If it does, try the system function (works off of the x command but in a data step.

ex.
data _null_;
 x = system ("your command here");
run;

Not sure why x command was not installed when Enterprise Guide was. Will try the code...thanks

X does not work with Enterprise Guide I'm afraid.
You can e-mail from within SAS though.
