Perhaps you could use SET OUTPUT to send the output to a file instead of 
to the screen, or use one the following features available in recent 
versions of SDA:

SDA> help set erase_screen

SET

   ERASE_SCREEN

        Enables or disables the automatic clearing of the screen before
        each new page of SDA output.

        Format

          SET ERASE_SCREEN  {ON|OFF}

     Parameters

SET ERASE_SCREEN Subtopic?
SET Subtopic? output

SET

   OUTPUT

        Redirects output from SDA to the specified file or device.

        Format

          SET OUTPUT  [/[NO]INDEX|/[NO]HEADER|

                      /PERMANENT|/SINGLE_COMMAND] filespec
