Hi Don perhaps others might be able to explain, but I can't. When issuing command "edparms" in the build source editor, the error message I get is ERROR: Command is valid only for SCL entries However, there are many EDPARMS entrytypes in SASHELP.FSP, namely

Name Type ------------------ CBT EDPARMS FSLETTER EDPARMS FSP EDPARMS HELP EDPARMS MENU EDPARMS PGM EDPARMS PROGRAM EDPARMS SOURCE EDPARMS SYSTEM EDPARMS To customise these, you might want to edit them directly in sashelp, or copy the required entries to your catalog, and open them there. Although the edparms command is not accepted in the source editor, you can open the edparms in the explorer catalog window, or with command build your.catalog.source.edparms ( with sas/af licensed you wouldn't need the libname.memname )

So I just can't explain why the edparms command doesn't work in the build source-type editor window.
