Is there any solution to open SAS .egp file without having SAS installed on my pc? I need to open project.egp to check my old code but I don't have SAS anymore. Is there any other way to do that?

A .egp file is a zipped set of xml files (and other things). If you change the extension to .zip, you can open it with any unzipping program, and see the contents. It is possible to extract programs and such from there at that point, though it's not necessarily easy to do as it's fairly messy.
