Table macro error

pink_poodle — Thu, 29 Sep 2022 18:04:19 GMT

Macro outputs table to rtf file, works for coworkers. When I run it on SAS EG, I get an error:

ERROR: The HTML destination is not active; no select/exclude lists are available.

Any suggestions are appreciated.

Thank you!

You probably need to turn on an output destination before you create the table

ods html;

ods html file="yourfile.html";

If that's not it, we need to the LOG contents (let's say for 50 lines before this error), as text not screen capture, pasted into the window that appears when you click on the </> icon.

Surprisingly, the macro was producing acceptable output despite these errors.
