Take a look at these documents to see if they simplify things for you:

Usage Note 30889: Displaying the "Please Wait" message for a long-running stored process

Hi,

Solution is to modify the stored process.

From the "SAS Code" window when editing a STP, click the "Include Code For" button. Deselect the option "Stored process macros".

Should work fine after that, and yes, it will still run as a stored proc without these macros.

Cheers.
