PROC SQL always ends with QUIT statement.Why cant you use
RUN in PROQ SQL ?

Answer Posted / richa

The PROC SQL step does not require a RUN statement. PROC
SQL executes each query automatically. If you use a RUN
statement with a PROC SQL step, SAS ignores the RUN
statement, executes the statements as usual, and generates
the note shown below in the SAS log:

NOTE: PROC SQL statements are executed immediately;
The RUN statement has no effect.

As per SAS certification guide.
