Subject:      procedure output on same page

Is there a simple way to tell SAS NOT to go to a new page to begin
procedure output?
 
By the way, I know about FORMDLIM, and it doesn't do what I want.
FORMDLIM just delimits pages with some other character than a page
break.  SAS still starts at line 1of what it thinks is a new page with
every new procedure.
 
Let's say pagesize is 60, there is a one-line footnote, and I have two
PROC PRINT statements that will print about 10 and 20 lines, respectively.
What I want is this:
 
output from the first PROC PRINT on lines 1-10
output from the second PROC PRINT on lines 11-30
about 29 blank lines
the footnote on line 60
 
Using FORMDLIM = " ",what I would get would be this:
 
the first PROC PRINT on lines 1-10
about 49 blank lines
the footnote on line 60
a blank line (the new page delimiter)
the second PROC PRINT
about 39 blank lines
the footnote again on about line 120
 
Even if I wait until after the first PROC PRINT to define the footnote, here
is what I get:
 
the first PROC PRINT on lines 1-10
the second PROC PRINT on lines 11-30
about 39 blank lines
the footnote on line 70 (since SAS thinks the second PROC PRINT started
with line 1)
 
I'm not on SAS-L (volume too high), so please respond to my address:

Thanks.
