In a SAS 9.4 grid environment, SAS Enterprise Guide and the SAS Add-In for Microsoft Office might display "Unable to initialize grid." In addition, you might get incomplete results from a BY-group process.

These problems can occur in SAS Enterprise Guide if you have selected either Initialize grid (if available) when connecting to a workspace or Use grid if available. These problems can occur in the SAS Add-in for Microsoft Office if you have selected Use grid if available.

These options are necessary only for workspace servers that are launched by an object spawner.
