Well, maybe it sound like a sledgehammer to crack a nut, but it can be pretty well automated as follows:

data _NULL_; call execute('options nosource;'); do i=1 to 10; call execute('%* blah blah;'); end; call execute("options %sysfunc(getoption(SOURCE));"); run;

This will automatically restore the SOURCE option to its original value. HTH?
