I keep having issues running SAS programs. I'm a student using SAS for multiple classes.  I get the box that says it is greater than 3 MB, display anyway, which 3 MB is not that big though.  Iv'e still been able to run these programs with this error, except now I have a new project for class and all I have done is imported a csv file which is 2.5 MB and tried to PROC Print to look at the data, and SAS does the running for a long time then completely terminates the session.

When you PRINT a large dataset in SAS Studio, the output needs to be displayed in your browser, and the capacity of browser windows is limited. To see a sample of your data, use a OBS= dataset option to keep the output in a reasonable size.

Rather than print the full data set, print a subset (20 records) or view the table in SAS instead of PROC PRINT.

proc print data=have(obs=20);
run;
