Is it possible to increase the log in the EG?

I have a sas programe with mprint option .When the program is being execute its not stoping and i need to stop it.
But When i cancel the mprint options it works fine,
I think its beacuse the log output is full....

Did you try to use PROC PRINTTO to save the log to disk instead of letting SAS Enterprise Guide embed the log inside of the project?

When im using the proc printto option its works fine beacuse the log is not part of the project....
Is their away to increase the log amount inside the project?

What version of EG is this?

I believe that in the most recent versions, there is no practical limit to the log size that EG collects. However, if it gets really huge, EG might not open it in an internal view, and instead launch an external application like notepad.
