The PRINTTO Procedure |
The PRINTTO procedure defines destinations, other than ODS destinations, for SAS procedure output and for the SAS log. By default, SAS procedure output and the SAS log are routed to the default procedure output file and the default SAS log file for your method of operation. The PRINTTO procedure does not define ODS destinations. See the following table.
You can store the SAS log or procedure output in an external file or in a SAS catalog entry. With additional programming, you can use SAS output as input data within the same job.
Method of running the SAS System | SAS log destination | Procedure output destination | |
---|---|---|---|
windowing environment | the LOG window | the OUTPUT window | |
interactive line mode | the display monitor (as statements are entered) | the display monitor (as each step executes) | |
noninteractive mode or batch mode | depends on the host operating system | depends on the operating environment |
Operating Environment Information: For information and examples specific to your operating system or environment, see the appropriate SAS Companion or technical report.
