Running macros with looping and like to save out log output into a file.

Here is post on how to do it with LISTING. Any other way, such as in command line?!

ods listing file="G:\foldername\filename.txt";
proc something;
    /* More commands */
run;
ods listing close;

Use the PRINTTO procedure to redirect the log.

I find it is a lot easier just to run a SAS program in batch mode then you get a log file automatically. No extra code needed at all.
