SUDAAN noprint option - eliminate headers

[anjgupta]

Hi,

Not sure this is the place for a SUDAAN question - if there's a SUDAAN community like this great SAS one, just let me know.

I'm using the NOPRINT option with PROC DESCRIPT - but the SUDAAN header, number of OBS, etc still prints.  The tables are not printing - but I'd like to leave the output screen blank after running the PROC.

This is what I'd like to eliminate.  Turning off the ODS listing didn't work.

If you cannot get it any other way then direct the print out to another file.

For example:

filename sudaan temp;

proc printto print=sudaan ; run;

proc sudaan ....

....

proc printto print=print; run;

Thanks.  I did confirm with RTI (owner of SUDAAN) there is no way to avoid printing the header, FYI.
