ABORT Statement

The general form of the ABORT statement is as follows:

ABORT ;

The ABORT statement stops execution and exits from PROC IML, much like a QUIT statement. The difference is that the ABORT statement is an executable statement that can be used in IF-THEN statements and in modules. For example, you might want to exit PROC IML if a certain error occurs. You can check for the error in a module and execute the ABORT statement if the error occurs.
