Can anyone help to find a statement to get all the predefined formats?..

Answer / diya

to use the permanent format catalog the statement is

libname a 'c:\sas\files';
options fmtsearch=(a.treesfmt);
proc print data=a.trees (obs=5) label;
run;

To use your permanent sas data set eith user-defined
fortmat for the future sas sessions you need to

1. assign a sas library to location of the sas format
catalog.
2. specfiy the name of the sas format catalog with the ftm
seacrch option.
