Hi

I have a problem. I use ODS to place Html ore Excel files on our local Disk drive so that my colleges should be abel to see the Graph. When I or other SAS users open the html document from Explore it works fine, but when other people open it they can not view the graph. It is drivers that are missing? can anyone help me because my owen helpdesk can not?

The users must have the SAS-ActiveX-Control installed on their computer.

the codebase= option allows automating the installation if required when users access the page.

The graphic drivers are on

It's a bit messy to maintain, as there are different drivers depending on the version of SAS used to create the graph itself.

Also, if your users aren't using some of the advanced features of the Active X graph available with a right-click, you might consider creating Active X images or JPEG files instead. If you right-click on the task and choose Properties then results, there's a place to choose the graph type underneath the file type questions.

A word of caution: the active x images are huge. Better space use with JPEG, but come of the defaults aren't as nice.
