The short answer is yes you can. I run jobs that generate hundreds of web pages per day on the mainframe, using PROC REPRT, PROC PRINT and most of the SG procs, including quite a few written in GTL and rendered with PROC SGRENDER. It sounds as you are unsure about how to get started. You will need to contact the person or group that installed and customized SAS on your mainframe to learn how to invoke SAS and generate reporting available to the web. While the general principles are the same for everyone, the specifics of what you need to do will be unique to your shop/

What SAS user interface are you using? You will need one that supports graphics if you want to display the results. SAS Studio or Enterprise Guide should work.
