Questions about using SAS Enterprise Guide as an IDE for writing SAS programs, or about setting up Enterprise Guide to connect to your SAS server. Questions about using Enterprise Guide that are not related to programming are not on topic (such as using its interactive point-and-click features to perform data analysis) - ask those on the SAS community forums.
Enterprise Guide ("EG") is the graphical user interface/IDE for the SAS system intended for novice and advanced users, simplifying common tasks with wizards and menu options while permitting advanced code to be written and run as well. EG also manages server connections to allow a user to execute SAS tasks without owning an individual seat license for a full SAS installation. Many concepts from EG will look familiar to users of other IDEs - project flow, the connection manager, etc. - but it is also intended to be easily used by novice users by putting access to commonly performed tasks in easily found locations.
SAS EG is also the interface for many of SAS' advanced tools, such as SAS BI.
