I'm comparing SAS Logs.
I have 2 questions:
1: While using proc printto, is it possible to keep the log for viewing? (so if error i can rerun, else the outputted log is ok).
2: For having a clean log (without the number in front), what can you use? I'm using a program to compare both output but it points out every row as the number in front is always different..
THanks!
Answer to #1
proc printto log="filename.log" new; run;
Answer to #2
I don't know if this is possible, I hope someone else knows.
#1 i want to save it in a .log file but still view it in my log window in sas
Oh, that wasn't clear from your original statement.
I don't think you can use PROC PRINTTO and still have the log appear in the log window. You can, however, open the .log file into the enhanced editor or program editor.
