Which window allows you to view the execution status of SAS procedures?

The Log window is the area where you can view the execution status of SAS procedures. It provides detailed information about the processing of your SAS code, including any errors, warnings, and notes that are generated during execution. When you run a SAS program, the Log window updates in real-time to reflect the status of each step, allowing you to monitor how your procedures are performing and to troubleshoot issues effectively.

For instance, if a procedure runs successfully, the Log will contain a statement indicating that the process completed without errors. Conversely, if there are errors, the Log will highlight them, often with line numbers and specific messages about what went wrong. This feature is essential for anyone working with SAS as it aids in debugging and ensures that the user is aware of the processing results.

The other options do not provide the specific function of showing the execution status of SAS procedures. The Editor is primarily where you write your SAS code, the Results window displays output from procedures rather than execution details, and the Explorer window is a tool for navigating through data files and libraries, rather than monitoring the status of code execution.
