Hi ,

Can you please help me.

I just want to add a new note in the SAS log file like:

Note: The program is running on " SAS PROD" server.

After the following notes
NOTE: Copyright (c) 2002-2008 by SAS Institute Inc., Cary, NC, USA.
NOTE: SAS (r) Proprietary Software 9.2

SO that when the user runs the log file , he can see which server he is running.


Thanks in Advance.

Best Regards

try adding your message to autoexec.sas
if the file does not exists create the one in the same path where sas.exe resides
e.g. -
%put The Program is running on SAS PROD Server ;

Check out using AUTOEXEC (with some "init" code) to probe your running-OS attributes, and possibly also NEWS for a static message displayed in the start of the log. Suggest you review the SAS companion document for your OS, as well as searching the SAS support website for supplemental technical / conference reference material on this topic.

submitted incomplete response ,

LOGnote1 provides a replacement for "The SAS System" title line that appears in the log file of batch SAS runs.

LogNote2 provides a trailer message in the log

because I work with a mixture of config files, it is easy to "inherit" these batch options from the "current folder" in which SAS starts.

a useful alternative might be the -NEWS option
it refers to a file that will be echo-ed into the SAS log as this demo indicates[pre]NOTE: SAS 9.1.3 Service Pack 4

news about your sas environments
