Hi Ching. The previous poster already gave you the printto code for
saving your output. If you want to save the log to an external file,
here is any easy way to do it.

/* To print SAS log to an external file */

FILENAME templog "c:\sas\log.txt";
PROC PRINTTO LOG=templog;
RUN;

/* To stop printing to an external file */

PROC PRINTTO LOG='null';
RUN;
