# SAS custom task example: Compress SAS data sets
***
This repository contains one of a series of examples that accompany
_Custom Tasks for SAS Enterprise Guide using Microsoft .NET_
by [Chris Hemedinger](http://support.sas.com/hemedinger).
This particular example goes with
**Chapter 13: Putting the Squeeze on Your SAS Data Sets**. It was built using C#
with Microsoft Visual Studio 2010. It should run in SAS Enterprise Guide 4.3 and later.
## About this example
This task serves as an example of how to adapt
a [proven SAS macro program](http://support.sas.com/kb/35/230.html)
into a useful task. It requires a simple user interface with
just a few options. Most of the work within the task lies within the SAS program,
which is embedded in the .NET assembly as a file resource.
For information about how to use the example in SAS Enterprise Guide,
see this blog post:
