Hi， I had a problem when outputting the result into word document.

Here is the log

ERROR: Unable to load module 'MSWord' from template store!
ERROR: No body file. WORD output will not be created.

Can anybody help?

Appreciated!

The LOG to describe a problem should include the Proc or data step code plus ALL the messages, notes, or warnings as well as errors.

In the case of ODS output related issues you should also include the ODS destination statement.

"Body file missing" often points to incorrect syntax specifying the destination file for ODS.

I think I did not include the complete code. Here is my complete log.

263  ods word file = "C:\Users\xuguang\Documents\My SAS Files\9.4\pulmonary\outliers.docx";
ERROR: Unable to load module 'MSWord' from template store!
ERROR: No body file. WORD output will not be created.

There is no ODS WORD, it's still pre-production so I would avoid it still. There is ODS RTF however that can be used.
