how catch floating point error in an ods?

You could try setting system option NOERRORABEND if you want the SAS session to keep running despite errors.

It seems to say in the log that the ODS output was not created.  So if you use ODS OUTPUT to tell it make a dataset of that ODS output then you can later test if the dataset is created or not.  Or perhaps if using BY group processing that it has all of the BY groups it should have.

Hello,

I would first try what @Quentin has suggested 10 or 15 minutes ago.

But in case you need to revert to LOG-parsing

... you should know that a proper LOG-parser (LOG-analyzer) , that you have to write yourself, will also organize everything in a structured dataset.

I am sure you can find many SAS Log parsers (SAS Log analyzers) on internet.
You can start here :

thanks, yes i scan the log. The reason i want the info in a dataset is so i can write code to suppress unreliable model estimates from a summary table, or at least flag them.
