Thanks,
Clicking in the SAS Explorer on a data set brings up the table viewer which
by default shows column labels. Most programmers most of the time want
variable names instead. It is easy to change back and forth using View
menu, but still it would be nice to have the default the way you want it.
Here is a solution due to Richard DeVenezia <radevenz@IX.NETCOM.COM> which
modifies the SAS registry with the SAS command RegEdit.
1) Type RegEdit in the command box (top left).
2) Choose Core
3) Choose Explorer
4) Choose Menus
5) Choose Members
6) Choose Table
7) Double click on default
8) Window pos up with
VIEWTABLE %8b.'%s'.DATA
Modify it to
VIEWTABLE %8b.'%s'.DATA; colnames
Click OK
9) Close Regedit.

Subject: column_labels vs column_names
When viewing a table, the column headings use the data labels.
I have to manually chose to shown data names.
Is there something in options to make data names the default.
Thanks.
