specifies the destination
for a copy of the SAS procedure output file. The file-specification argument can be a valid Windows
pathname or filename (including device names) or an environment variable
associated with a pathname. If you specify only a pathname, the copy
is placed in a file in the specified directory, with a name of filename.LST, where filename is the name of your SAS job. If you are running SAS interactively
and specify only a pathname, the filename is SAS.
NOALTPRINT
does not create a copy
of the SAS procedure output file.
Details
The ALTPRINT system
option specifies the destination for the copies of output files from
SAS procedures. Use the ALTPRINT system option to capture procedure
output for printing.
To send the procedure
output to a printer other than the default printer, use a valid Windows
printer name for the destination value.
Note: ALTPRINT replaces the following
system options form earlier versions of SAS: PDISK, PPRINT, and PTYPE.
