Hi I am trying to find the better function in SAS to do a nonlinear
optimization function similar to the one using the optim function with
the BFGS method for the R software which allows defining upper and
lower bonds .

PROC NLP in SAS/OR, use the TECH= option and you can have BFGS
which permits you to specify lower and upper bounds.
