At least two possibilities:

1) You don't have "Save Settings on Exit" checked in Tools/Options/Preferences
2) And/Or SAS is invoked without write access to the SAS profile
        a) because it was the 2nd or subsequent concurrent SAS session
        b) -rsasuser option was set on invocation

See http://listserv.uga.edu/cgi-bin/wa?A2=ind0502c&L=sas-l&F=&S=&P=42465 for a discussion on -rsasuser and saving profile changes ( ie. like keyboard macros assigned keys, window sizes/position etc... )

Hello,

Just a followup question..i created the keyboard macro as described in
Harry's post, it worked fine when i used the macro within a current
session (that is, immediately after the macro was created.) however if
i shutdown my computer and then invoke sas again, then try my assigned
keys, it does not work..when i go to view my macros it is still
there..What is going on? Thanks, nevin

Key away to your heart's content ( make sure you place your cursor
where you want to start your customization of the header template ),
Tools, Keyboard Macros, Stop Recording, name it appropriately, Tools,
Keyboard Macros, Macros, Assign Keys, select the macro you just
recorded, click in the "Press new shortcut key" input box, hit
Ctrl-Alt-H, click Assign, Click Ok, Close.
