Raj ,

Something like this untested fully:

%Let Start = %SysFunc( DateTime() ) ;
%Let End  = %SysFunc( DateTime() ) ;
%Put TotalTime = %SysFunc( PutN( %SysEvalF( &End - &Start ) , Time. )  ) ;

Hi,
I am trying to execute a huge sas code and see the time difference from
start of the program to end of the program.

what is the best way to do it?
I thought of using sysdate macro variable but it only has date
information.
systime macro variable only has time info when session started.

Is there any variable (macro or otherwise) that tells current system
date and time in SAS?

thanks,
Raj
