Chandu,

You do not say what OS you are running.  With all OS's except z/OS,
all that is necessary is to specify the option FULLSTIMER at the
start of your program or in your SAS configuration file.  The
FULLSTIMER option will yield elapsed time as well as CPU time for
each process individually and also for the entire program.
