Hey all!

 

Long time Base SAS user, recently moved to SAS EG.  

 

I have a program (a lot of programs actually...) that has an extensive PROC DATASETS in it.  Since moving to EG, it has started kicking out a long list of directory information to my output file.  I'm not using ODS code at the moment to control which output goes directly to my final output file (that's a whole 'nother conversation...).  So, how do I suppress the output from PROC DATASETS within the Datasets procedure?

Thank you! 

 

I should have listened to Google in the first place.  When I tried to type in "PROC Datasets noprint" it came back with "Did you mean PROC Datasets nolist?"  Apparently even Google knew the right answer.

I typically add both NODETAILS and NOLIST to the PROC DATASETS statement.
