Types of Installation Configurations
Performing a Complete Personal Installation
Select this option if you want to install all of the components on the SAS System CD, but do not need the Help files, Sample files, or Test programs. This option is not recommended for single users because by default almost all of the SAS modules available are installed.
Performing a Custom Personal Installation ** (Recommended for single users)**
When the Custom Installation component listbox is displayed, select only the components that you want to install. The Core and Base modules are required and for statistical analysis select the STAT module.
For instructions of the other three types of installations available (Client Installation, Complete File Server Installation and Custom File Server Installation) refer to the Installation Instructions section of the SAS CD-ROM .
!!!VERY IMPORTANT!!!
Toward the end of the installation the following sets of messages will appear: Setup is ready to update your licensing information. Update license (setinit) information? [recommended] Select NO. There appears to be a problem with your setinit.sas file! Would you like to correct the file now? Select NO. Licensing process has been terminated by the user. Select OK.
Updating the SAS System
To update the SAS System (changing the expiration date), refer Updating SAS License Information - SAS 8.1
If the SAS Setup program determines that additional installation options are available, windows for the additional installation options will be displayed. After all of the SAS System files have been copied, each of these installation options will launch another setup program. Once these external setup programs are finished, you will be returned to SAS System Setup.
You should install either the 16 or 32 bit version of the SAS ODBC Driver depending on the version of Windows you are running, and whether your ODBC applications are 16 or 32 bit.
On Windows 95 you can install both the 16 and 32 bit drivers depending on your application needs. 16 bit applications can use both 16 and 32 bit drivers and hence can see data sources defined by each type of driver. 32 bit applications can only use 32 bit drivers and therefore can only see data sources defined to the 32 bit drivers. This occurs because Windows 95 allows thunking (16 to 32 bit translation) from 16 to 32 bit applications but not from 32 to 16 bit applications. The ODBC Driver Manager handles all thunking issues.
