Hi,

I am running this Macro

OPTIONS OVP;

%Macro me;

%do i = 1 %to 5;

%put 'i= ' "&i.";

%end;

%Mend;

%me;

In the log, I have these,

'i= ' "1"

'i= ' "2"

'i= ' "3"

'i= ' "4"

'i= ' "5"

I am trying to controll the output of LOG that the new line

%put 'i= ' "&i."

Will erase the previous line, such that instead of five lines of PUT in the
log, I'd have only one line remaining

'i= ' "5"

Can you show me a way to do that?

Thanks
