Debugging a SAS® Program

The ability of the Visualizer to understand your code extends to the log files that are generated by SAS®.  The Visualizer parses out the log file and identifies any potential bugs—that is, code that has generated errors or warnings.  It highlights any icon containing problematic code in red and yellow according to the severity of the problem.

Click on the highlighted Proc PRINT icon, a pop up window (as show below) will display the problematic Code and the corresponding Log.  You can optionally edit the code in the Code section (upper half) of the Code & Log window to correct the error.
