Details

SAVESCREEN copies the current values of all window variables in a PROGRAM entry into the user's profile for later restoration. The values are stored for recall across invocations of SAS software in a catalog entry named SASUSER.PROFILE.entry.AFPGM, where entry is the name of the SAS/AF entry whose values are saved. This is similar to the SAVE command in the SAS/AF program window.

The saved values can be reloaded either with the RECALL command in the application window, or with the AUTORECALL=YES option in the AF command that invokes the application.

SAVESCREEN is valid only for PROGRAM entries.

Example

Save the final contents of the fields in an application window:

TERM:
   call savescreen();
return;
