No errors but can't see the output after running the code

AJ_Brien — Wed, 17 Apr 2019 20:47:13 GMT

Hello,

I'm trying to test something very basic.

options nocenter source2 mlogic symbolgen nomprint

%let unix_out = abc;

%put unix_out;

when I run this, I get this in the log window and nothing else

1 The SAS System 14:34 Wednesday, April 17, 2019

1 %_eg_gridprologue;
NOTE: Remote submit to GRID commencing.
NOTE: Remote submit to GRID complete.
2 %_eg_gridclientepilogue;
3 %let _EGRC=&_EGRCGRID;
4

Appreciate any help!

Classic missing semicolon:

options nocenter source2 mlogic symbolgen nomprint; * <=== semicolon here;

%let unix_out = abc;

%put &unix_out;

I added the semicolon, thank you.

But I don't see any output still.

I've tried the following to see if any of these might work, but they didn't

%put &unix_out.;

%put unix_out;

%put &unix_out;

Just to close the thread:

simply using %put as mentioned above never worked for me.

The only thing that did work was :
%put &=unix_out;
