not working: inobs= with prompt option

wxzhai — Mon, 30 Oct 2023 19:53:23 GMT

Hi I followed the certification prep guide with the following code:

proc sql inobs=5 prompt;
select flightnumber, destination
from sasuser.internationalflights;

The prompt option seems no effect on prompting to stop or continue as expected when the obs reading reached 5? I'm using sas on-demand.

Can anyone help on it?

thanks

Prompting will only work in the classic Display Manager interface of a locally installed SAS. On Demand runs on a remote server.
