Proc Univariate Histogram - no graphical output anywhere

Hello, I am seeking a simple histogram using Proc Univariate. The code below produces the stats in the output window but no graph anywhere (output window, disk, etc.). I've tried a few version of the ODS LISTING idea, but no luck. Grateful for any ideas. Thank you! Rick

	input var1;
	cards;

ods listing html;
*ods listing gpath="c:\temp";

proc univariate data=binom;
	histogram var1 / normal;
var var1;


run;

Do you get an error in the log?

HTML (and histograms) cannot be written to the LISTING destination.

You want to use

ods html;

with possibly other options in the ods html statement.

Don't forget to enable ODS graphics before your PROC UNIVARIATE.

ods graphics on;

Thank you! ODS HTML does the trick.

Thank you! ODS GRAPHICS ON is helpful!
