First, since your agency has ponied up the dough for SAS EM, you
have the right to expect some *AWESOME* tech support from SAS
on this.  Don't be afraid to call your SAS site rep or go straight to
SAS Tech Support. EM is expensive, and you can get a lot of free
tech support from SAS.

Then the next thing to know about is SAS 'Model Packages' and
the free SAS Package Reader that you can download from the SAS
website.  You probably want to right-click on your node and look for
an option with a name like "Create Model Package".  that will let you
create a .SPK file that can be passed around and viewed by anyone
who has the SAS Package Reader - it does not require them to have
SAS, or even know what SAS is.

If, instead, you want the scoring information to be available so you
can score something else, then you need to use the Score node to
create the code.  You can get SAS code, Java code, C code, or
even PMML (which is an XML representation of your model and scoring
code).

The best thing to do is start with the SAS documentation and walk
through tutorials. so you know as much as you can before you have to
start on the whole process.

HTH,
David
