A
SAS/CONNECT script is a SAS program that is stored in a file on
the client. However, the programming statements in a script are not
the usual SAS programming statements. Scripts use a specialized set
of SAS statements called
script statements. Scripts are executed to start or to stop
SAS/CONNECT sessions.
Scripts that start the connection are executed by submitting the SIGNON
statement, and scripts that stop the connection are executed by submitting
the SIGNOFF statement. In most cases, the same script is used to sign
on and sign off.
