Hi all,

When i use the MATCH_ALL= option in ODS OUTPUT statement, it is causing warnings. Please refer to the below image and suggest.

Hi @angird1990 and welcome to the SAS Support Communities!

In the correct syntax (see ODS OUTPUT statement documentation) MATCH_ALL or MATCH_ALL=mvarname occurs in parentheses after the output object name.

In your example:

ods output summary(match_all=var_name)=stats;
proc means data=sashelp.class;
run;

Typically, MATCH_ALL is used in situations where two or more ODS output datasets are created.

Example:

ods output summary(match_all=dslist)=stats1;
proc means data=sashelp.cars;
by make;
run;

%put &=dslist;
