SAS log in external file

Rakeon — Fri, 03 Oct 2014 20:21:10 GMT

Hi,

I use SAS 9.1, and I would like to move my sas log in an external file in.

I use this code:

filename mylog 'c:\.......\log.txt';

proc printto log = mylog new; run;

Obviously it works,

but If want to see the update of the file txt, I have always to close the file txt and re-open the file txt...and it's not comfortable...

is there one way to see the update of the file log without close the file log and re-open?

p.s. I use the program notepad of windows in order to see the file log.

Try an altlog instead:

Using Notepad++ open that Log file .

Thank you Ksharp,

I resolved with notepad, and I set It with automatic refresh.

Now it works!!
