Sample 24700: Determining page breaks using LINESLEFT=
Use the LINESLEFT= option on the FILE statement to determine where a page break occurs based on the number of lines left on a page. The number of lines per page is set by PAGESIZE= option. Create a page count and write it out at the bottom of
each page. Use the END= option to determine when the last
observation is processed in order to write out the final page
count.
