Creating a link in SAS EG - sql

I have been unable to find any documentation on creating links in a SAS EG process flow.
Here is an example what I mean by link:
The ones with the dotted lines are created by right clicking and pressing create a link.
But what do they do? my guess is they make one program run after the data it is linked to is created but I am not sure. What are they used for and is there any consequence for using them?
Thank you in advance.

Dynamic Reports - is it possible to set starting page?

I'm using Dynamic Reports to build huge PDF files (like 80.000 pages) and for now, the solution I found was to create intermediary files and merge them after processing. The last challenge for getting it done is to add page numbers, but the default counting obviously get messed up after merging. So I need some way to set the starting page number when creating the temp PDF files. The three methods available don't allow page setting. Is it possible? How do I do it?
Thanks in advance.
Yes, it is possible. Although it's hard to find in the documentation, the report() has exactly what is needed: the method
report.setStartPageNumber(int)
As stated by Ricardo in the DynamicReports forum.

BigQuery connecting from GSheet without enabling API every time

I have some scripts running from GSheet getting data from BigQuery. However, in order to make the files run, I need to manually enable the API every time for a given sheet.
So the question is: How to enable API within the code, so that if I share the GSheet or make a copy I don't have to go to the script editor and enable the API from there?
Thanks
I am a huge fan of this particular use of the Google ecosystem, so I'm happy to help get others up and running using GSheets with BigQuery! Hopefully it is working well for you!
When sharing the sheet with others, there is no need to alter anything in the script editor at all. The scripts should run and query BigQuery without issue; this has been my experience at least. The obvious caveat to this is that the users you share it with must have access to the Google Developer Project that the BigQuery instance is associated with.
However, when copying the sheet, I do not believe it is possible to have it replicate the connection. This is because when the file is copied, it becomes associated with a new Google Developer Project. Thus, you have to go into the script editor, then go to Resources > Developers Console Project and change the project listed to the one in which you have BigQuery enabled.
Hopefully this helps! Sorry I don't have better news for you!

Abap change pointers send complete material master data idoc

I have change pointers set-up for material master data and it is already working. Now, I have the requirement always send the whole material information to the external system. When doing manually in BD10, I can select the option to send the full material. However, when using change pointers and the program RBDMIDOC, there does not seem to be a proper way to do it.
I have searched around and the solutions seem to be creating a custom program (copy of RBDMIDOC) which implements the logic to manually change the table BCDP to fool the system to send the full material information.
This does not look like a good solution.
Any advise how this requirement can be realized "properly"? I don't think I am the first to have this requirement...
Thanks a lot for your answer(s)!
My solution was to set the fldname in the change pointers to the special value of "ALELISTING". This will cause the system to send the whole material master data via the IDoc. Note that this might only work for material master data but not other IDocs.

[eclipse plugin]saving and loading information of a wizard on an XML file

I work on an eclipse plugin and I've created wizards with SWT / JFace.
In these wizards I need to record some information that has been specified by the users for future use. I saw an example that speaks about this part, I tried to do the same thing but I'm lost !
Behold the link
http://java-gui.info/Wiley-Professional.Java.Interfaces.with.SWT.JFace/12093/BBL0095.html
Is there anyone who can help me on this . What are the main steps that I must follow
thank you in advance
The link is right. Before exiting the wizard, save the data in dialog settings (got using getDialogSettings()) and on next launch restore getDialogSettings().get
May be you want to be more specific in the problem being faced.
