Hi,

I am doing testing of SAS program in mainframe. I need to put display statements(COBOL) in SAS program.

Can you pl. give me the key/syntax for that.

Your immediate response is appreciated.

jayram99,

Just look up the PUT statement syntax. The PUT statement is similar to the cobol display statement.

Hi

Should i code entire code to display 'THIS IS A MESSAGE'.

%MACRO PUTLOG(MSG);
DROP __RC;
__RC = _ERROR_;
ERROR &MSG;
_ERROR_ = __RC;
%MEND;

...

%PUTLOG("THIS IS A MESSAGE");

OR

%PUTLOG("THIS IS A MESSAGE");

Pl. let me know.

Jayaram
