SAS: PROC SQL, FEEDBACK option

PROC SQL will show details about output files in the SAS log, but unfortunately does not (currently) list input files. Rather than attempt to parse the input code, you can probably get what you want my adding the FEEDBACK option to the PROC SQL statement.

          from WORK.DEP, WORK.EMP, WORK.HRS
