How to resolve ERROR 180-322: Statement is not valid or is used out of proper order in SAS without restarting?

In SAS, when using PROC SQL, I receive the error message

ERROR 180-322: Statement is not valid or is used out of proper order

relatively frequently due to missing out a semi colon in the PROC SQL statement. However, even if I fix the code, these errors are not resolved unless I quit the SAS application and restart it and rerun the fixed code.

Does anyone know of a way to resolve these errors that doesn't require having to restart SAS for the fix to work?

You might be able to recover by submitting an appropriate magic string, e.g.

*;*';*";*/;quit;
