SAS Companion for the OS/2 Environment

Interrupting Your SAS Session

You can click on the Break toolbar button (the circled exclamation point (!)) or press CTRL+BREAK to interrupt processing in your SAS session. Depending on what tasks the SAS System is performing at the time of the interrupt, you can cancel submitted statements or cancel an upload or download request. SAS prompts you with various choices (such as to continue the interrupt or to cancel it) in a dialog box.

Note: Depending upon what tasks are in progress when you interrupt your session, the SAS System may require several seconds to stop processing. [cautionend]

The SAS System supports the common OS/2 method of issuing interrupts: from the Window List window, click the right mouse button on SAS and select Close. Note that the task might not stop until SAS has completed processing.
