I tried to run this code in sas studio:

ods select variables;

proc contents data=sas-data-set;

run;

ods select default;

I am trying to show only the variables information in the output.  When I run this code sas studio just shows the running pop up with the cancel button, but never stops running.  I eventually have to cancel the process.  Any ideas?
