Proc Report witchcraft? I can add any bottom border color but not black (with MWE)

morglum — Thu, 17 Dec 2015 17:01:29 GMT

Here's my minimal working example. Obviously, I'm looking for a black bottom border.

ods escapechar = '^';
ods listing close;
ods rtf file='c:\temp\usestyle1.rtf' style=minimal;

proc report data=sashelp.class nowd
style(report)=
[
frame=hsides
rules=groups
cellspacing=0];

column
('^S={just=l borderbottomcolor=purple} Purple bottom border ' age name )
('^S={just=l borderbottomcolor=black} MISSING black border' height weight);

define age / order style(header)={cellwidth=1.25in} 'Laboratory Test';
define name / display style(header)={cellwidth=1.25in} 'The Name';
define height / display style(header)={just=c cellwidth=1.25in} 'height';
define weight / display style(header)={just=c cellwidth=1.25in} 'weight';
run;
ods _all_ close;

Does this do what you want?

style(report)=
 [ 
 frame=hsides 
 rules=groups
 cellspacing=0 borderbottomcolor=black];
