Hello, All

Suppose i have following codes:

ODS Trace On;

Proc Logistic ....

....

Run;

ODS Trace Off;

By default, each output object (including Name, Label, Template and Path) was written to SAS log; is there a waythose information can be written to a dataset?

you can use proc printto to redirect the log into a external file. and transform it into dataset.

proc printto log='c:\trace.txt';run;
ods trace on;
proc glm data=sashelp.class;
 model weight=height;
quit;
ods trace off;
proc printto;run;

data want;
 infile 'c:\trace.txt' length=len;
 input list $varying200.len;
run;
