Details

The FILE= option in the CONTENTS statement of the CATALOG procedure accepts a fileref. If the name specified does not correspond to a fileref, a file with that name and an extension of .lst is created in the current directory. For example, if MYFILE is not a fileref, the following code creates file myfile.lst in your current directory:

proc catalog catalog=sasuser.profile;
   contents file=myfile;
run;

Note:   The filename that is created is always in lowercase, even if you specified it in uppercase.  [cautionend]
