Accessing information from a SAS procedures auxilary info/leading information?

[zscott1]

Specifically. the surveyselect procedure.  It prints

The SURVEYSELECT Procedure

Selection Method	Simple Random Sampling
Strata Variable	STRATA

Input Data Set	FRAME
Random Number Seed	78070001
Stratum Sample Size	2
Number of Strata	1
Total Sample Size	2
Output Data Set	SAMPLESTRATA4

after the procedure is performed which is great, but is there a way that I can access this through SAS code?  I want to be able to find  Random Number Seed and this information to access it and write the seed as a macro variable.

Thanks..

Try :

proc sort data=sashelp.class out=class; by sex age; run;

proc surveyselect data=class out=test sampsize=2;

strata sex;

ods output summary=classSummary;

run;

proc print data=classSummary; run;

or simply choose your own seed= option on the proc surveyselect statement.
