Table of Procedure Tasks

Statement	Task	Example
DEFINE TAGSET Statement	Create a tagset	Ex. 1, Ex. 2, Ex. 3, Ex. 4, Ex. 5, Ex. 8
DEFINE EVENT Statement	Define what is written to the output file	Ex. 1, Ex. 2, Ex. 3, Ex. 4, Ex. 5, Ex. 6, Ex. 7
BLOCK Statement	Disable an event
BREAK Statement	Stop the current event from executing
CLOSE Statement	Close the current stream variable and direct all future output to the output file
CONTINUE Statement	Return the execution of the DO loop to the corresponding DO statement for re-evaluation of the IF event statement condition
DELSTREAM Statement	Delete the specified stream variable
DO Statement	Begin a statement block that executes if the required condition is true
DONE Statement	End a DO or ELSE statement block
ELSE Statement	Begin a statement block that executes if the corresponding DO statement is false
Event Statement Conditions	Specify one or more conditions that must be true for a DEFINE EVENT statement to execute
Event Variables	Set one or more event attributes
END Statement	End the event
EVAL Statement	Create or update a user-defined variable
FLUSH Statement	Write buffered output to the current output file or the current stream variable
ITERATE Statement	Iterate through a dictionary variable or list variable and assign its value to the _NAME_ and _VALUE_ event variables for each iteration
NDENT Statement	Indent output one more level than specified by the INDENT= attribute	Ex. 3, Ex. 5
NEXT Statement	Increase a dictionary or list variable incrementally to the next value and repopulate event variables
NOTES Statement	Provide information about the tagset	Ex. 3
OPEN Statement	Open or create a stream variable
PUT Statement	Write text, new lines, variable values, or DATA step function return values to an output file	Ex. 1, Ex. 3, Ex. 4, Ex. 5, Ex. 6
PUTL Statement	Write text, new lines, variable values, or DATA step function return values to an output file and add a new line to the end of the output
PUTLOG Statement	Write text, new lines, variable values, or DATA step function return values to the log
PUTQ Statement	Write text, new lines, variable values, or DATA step function return values to an output file and enclose in quotes	Ex. 7
PUTSTREAM Statement	Write the contents of the specified stream variable to an output file
PUTVARS Statement	Write text, new lines, variable values, or DATA step function return values to an output file for each value in a variable group, list, or dictionary
SET Statement	Create or update a user-defined variable and its value
STOP Statement	Move the execution to the end of the current statement block
TRIGGER Statement	Execute an event	Ex. 3, Ex. 4, Ex. 5, Ex. 6
UNBLOCK Statement	Enable a disabled event
UNSET Statement	Delete a user-defined variable and its value
XDENT Statement	Indent output one less indention level	Ex. 3, Ex. 5
