How to output the error message to the word?

Hello:

I have the following error messages showing the log screen. Is there a way to output the error message to the word document? Only the error message, thanks.

You could always use proc printto (see: http://support.sas.com/documentation/cdl/en/basess/68381/HTML/default/viewer.htm#p07x6qtx8z1608n1abor9x5i2zf0.htm) to reroute your log, and then process the file to an ods rtf file if, and only if, the line begins with the string "ERROR:"

Probably best to use a log parser routine to compile the errors and then output them to a word document.

Search lexjansen.com for samples of log parsers.
