PROC content engine/host information

cvilme1998 — Thu, 24 Dec 2020 20:48:27 GMT

Above is the exact format I am trying to achieve, but through my code listed below:

%let raw=P:\SAS\71342_example\Data\Raw Data Sets;
%let SASdat=P:\SAS\71342_example\Data\SAS Data Sets;
libname BookData "&SASdat";
filename RawData "&raw";
run;
proc contents data = sashelp.bweight varnum;
run;

My output has been this:

Essentially I want to remove the Engine/Host information, and keep the other information

See here for the ODS table names, so you can select or exclude.

If @Kurt_Bremser 's reply doesn't suit your needs,2 options:

1- Have your program edit the output report (HTML file for example) if you can

2- Use option out= and create the report yourself from the output dataset(s)

ods html;
ods select Attributes;
proc contents data = sashelp.bweight varnum;

ods html close;

Here the code, tested:

ods exclude enginehost;
proc contents data = sashelp.bweight varnum;
run;
ods exclude none;
