proc compare data=sashelp.cars compare=work.cars;

The output of above proc compare is lst report. I want to save the lst report in a folder C:\myfolder\

You can use proc printto:

proc printto print="c:\your_file.txt" new;

run;

proc compare...;

proc printto;

run;

 

Or better still for nice output set an ods destination, much like any other output.  Depends what you need it for.
