Your is already saving the dataset. (I assume the missing spaces between in the program are the result of copying and pasting.)

Your program is creating a dataset named cholesterol, you could just change the name in the DATA statement if you want to save it as another name.

If you want to save some other dataset that you have created then you could just run another data step.

data dcm_data.cholesterol2 ;

set other_work_dataset ;

run;
