>From what I understand, that is no longer the case. Barry supports running MXG under WPS. His support is that if you get an error while running under WPS, then send the data to him, and he'll run it under SAS. If it fails under SAS he'll accept the error and fix it. If it runs under SAS then you'll need to contact WPS for a fix. He has also made some changes to MXG so it will run under WPS such as a special AUTOEXEC for WPS. However, there are some things outside of MXG itself to watch out for with WPS. For example, I create PDF format reports using ODS and use PROC REPORT extensively. Neither of those SAS functions are supported by WPS yet.
