I get a S806 abend when I try to execute the following: //SAS EXEC MXGSAS. Actually, this we used at other company, which can not be valid at this company. In such a case how do I know the possible module names for MXG V32? Should i check in MXG.SOURCLIB? But then which member in this PDS to look at to execute the MXG? Is there any other possible way to find out?

Ask SAS support. Perhaps previously you had access to a feature not licensed at your current site.

This is one of those issues where you MUST talk to your site support group. MXG is a third-party product for which payment is required. As such, not every site uses MXG. While your old site used it, the new site may -- or may not -- even have it installed. If the product is not installed, then you will not be able to use it. Only someone working AT YOUR SITE can tell you whether or not the product is installed. If it is installed, they can tell you how to access it. They may also have to change your security profile to allow you to use it (assuming that it is installed) since many sites restrict the use of MXG so application programmers cannot use it.

One other note -- MXG does not have a module; it invokes SAS macros to perform its functions so you won't find a load module anywhere for MXG.
