Status while programs in SAS EG are running?

[elwayfan446]

Let's say I have a program within a SAS EG project flow that has multiple data steps and proc sql queries.  Is there a way I can monitor the script while it is running to determine which query is currently running so I can figure out which steps have already completed and how much further the program has to go?  All I can find is the details of what task is currently running at the bottom of the SAS EG window but nothing that can tell me which step inside a program is currently running.

Thanks!

SYSECHO Statement

Sends a global statement complete event and passes a text string back to the IOM client.
