Hi,

You can use ODS to select specific tables with the NLMIXED procedure.

From the SAS documentation, the tables are :-

ODS Table Name          Description                         Statement or
Option
-------------------
=====================================  -------------------
AdditionalEstimates Results from ESTIMATE statements            ESTIMATE
ConvergenceStatus   Convergence status                          default
CorrMatAddEst       Correlation matrix of additional estimates  ECORR
CorrMatParmEst      Correlation matrix of parameter estimates   CORR
CovMatAddEst        Covariance matrix of additional estimates   ECOV
CovMatParmEst       Covariance matrix of parameter estimates    COV
DerAddEst           Derivatives of additional estimates         EDER
Dimensions          Dimensions of the problem                   default
FitStatistics       Fit statistics                              default
Hessian             Second derivative matrix                    HESS
IterHistory         Iteration history                           default
Parameters          Parameters                                  default
ParameterEstimates  Parameter estimates                         default
Specifications      Model specifications                        default
StartingHessian     Starting hessian matrix START               HESS
StartingValues      Starting values and gradient                START

To convert any table to a SAS dataset use the following commmand :-

        ods output 'table-name'=SAS-data-set;

To stop all output use :-

        ods exclude all;

To select just one table use

        ods select 'table-name';

For example :-

        proc nlmixed
        .
        .
        .

        ods select AdditionalEstimates FitStatistics;
        run;

Check the documentation on ODS, there is an example in "Example 15.4:
Selecting ODS Tables for Display".

How can one use NOPRINT with NLMIXED procedure, please?
I only want to get estimations (and nothing about iteration history).
Thanks,
