Syntax

TITLE <n> <'text' | "text">;

no arguments: cancels all existing titles.
n: specifies the relative line that contains the title line.
'text' | "text": specifies the text of the title that is enclosed in single or double quotation marks. For compatibility with previous releases, SAS accepts some text without quotation marks. When writing new programs or updating existing programs, always surround text with quotation marks.

Under OpenVMS, the maximum title length is 132 characters. If the title length is greater than the value of the LINESIZE= system option, then the title is truncated to the line size.
