There's a lot of other stuff because I'm using SAS Studio but it most definitely suppresses the code used.
@feenberg wrote:
Procs import and export print multiple lines in the log file for each variable in the files to be translated. With hundreds of variables it becomes quite a nuisance. I have seen several postings suggesting "options nosource" for suppressing the excess output of the proc import or proc export, but I haven't actually seen it work. There is an example posted on the SAS website that shows it failing to work. If the link doesn't work, try searching for "Example 2: Exporting a Subset of Observations to a CSV File" or see the attachment. Notice the numbered lines include the unwanted printout even though nosource is specified among the options. Is there any solution? All I need is the number of variables and observations - not the source code for the translation itself.
