Thanks for all the replies everyone. As it turns out, I left off a
piece, -ERRORABEND.
When this setting is active and an error occurs, the -termstmt is _not_
submitted. This is probably the most important situation for raising the
log (and it doesn't)

A much less quotey command line can be used when taking advantage of &, the
command separator:

sas.exe ... & start "Review" "my logfile.txt"
