Hello all,

I have a bizarre little problem...whatever statement is last in my program does not execute. Or more accurately, SAS executes it but it takes far, far longer than it should to complete (I have yet to see it finish). And it's always for the last statement in my program (say, a PROC REG).

Has anyone else encountered this error?

Thank you for your time.

Hi:
Just a bit of additional troubleshooting. PROC REG (and some other procedures) have an "interactive" capability. They do not end with a RUN; as the step boundary, they end with a QUIT;

If you only have a RUN; at the bottom of your PROC REG step, you might see whether adding a

[pre]QUIT;[/pre]

makes the PROC REG finish up in a quicker manner.
