ECHO "message"
-
specifies the text of the message to be
echoed to the SAS log. The text must be enclosed in single or double quotation
marks if the message is more than one word. Otherwise, quotation marks are
not needed.
-
NOECHO
-
specifies that no messages are to be echoed
to the SAS log.
Messages that result from errors in the
autoexec file are printed in the SAS log regardless of how the ECHO system
option is set.
For example, you can specify the following:
-echo "SAS System under Windows
is initializing."
The message appears in the LOG window as SAS initializes.
