Description

The PROFILE window creates a report profile that
  • specifies the SAS library, catalog, and entry that define alternative menus to use in the REPORT and COMPUTE windows. Use PROC PMENU to create catalog entries of type PMENU that define these menus. PMENU entries for both windows must be in the same catalog.
  • sets defaults for WINDOWS, PROMPT, and COMMAND. PROC REPORT uses the default option whenever you start the procedure unless you specifically override the option in the PROC REPORT statement.
Specify the catalog that contains the profile to use with the PROFILE= option in the PROC REPORT statement. (See the discussion of PROFILE=libref.catalog.)
