ods powerpoint - left justify sas output

Bill — Fri, 23 Feb 2018 18:40:16 GMT

My basic code below.

Is there a way to force the tabulate output to be left justified on the ppt slide? I'd like to have some blank space on the right to add a text box.

ods powerpoint file="c:\temp\Table20.pptx" image_dpi=300;

proc tabulate data=table;

etc;
run;

ods _all_ close;

Thank you,
Bill

You can use

OPTIONS NOCENTER;

which is an ancient 1960's (or early 70's) option meant to left justify LISTING output. It appears that ODS destinations also honor that option. Put the OPTIONS statement prior to the set of procedures you want to be left justified. You can issue it once, as it is a global statement and will be honored until you issue an

OPTIONS CENTER;

statement, which restores the SAS default setting.

Thanks! Works like a charm.
