Details

If you put the ICON system option in the SAS command or the SAS configuration file, the SAS System is minimized upon initialization. If you submit the ICON system option in an OPTIONS statement, the SAS System is immediately minimized. This is equivalent to clicking on the minimize button.

This system option is especially useful for obtaining a minimized SAS session as soon as you start Windows. For example, the ICON system option could be specified in the SAS command as follows:

c:\sas\sas.exe -icon
