Subject:      Re: PROC PRINT running

I'm not sure, maybe there is a option to prevent the OUTPUT window from
pausing the program. But I don't think so. A DM statement would not be the
solution. I don't think that this is possible in PROC PRINT, and after
that it is too late.
Do you have FSP? In that case you could do something like:

proc printto print="p:\test.out";
run;

proc print data=a;
run;

proc printto;
run;

proc fslist file="p:\test.out";
run;
