Jane--
As far as I know, no. This would be a natural addition though, and I
have heard at least one request for this at Users Group meeting.
Try
creturn list
to see where a section on "Currently running" or somesuch would be
natural, with perhaps:
c(dofilename) = ""
c(dofilepath) = ""
c(adofilename) = ""
c(adofilepath) = ""
One workaround for do-files is to create your own versions of -do- and
-run- (renamed appropriately) that create the log file and then -do-
or -run- the do-file. Another option is to use batch-mode processing
which creates a do-file of the same name by default, and also runs a
whole lot faster.
