There is a Borders option on the Styles tab, but that controls an extra outside border (hidden by default) that also encompasses the title of the table report object if there is one.

It sounds like you want to remove the outside borders of the table itself, and I don't see a way to do that. You can toggle the internal cell borders of the table (Show horizontal lines / Show vertical lines), but I don't see an option for the outside border of the table.

Perhaps look into using a different ODS style, such as Journal. Or use one of the versions of Journal (my SAS install provided 3) as the base for your own.

Specify the style option on output:

ODS HTML style=journal;

ODS RTF style=journal;

or whichever destination you are using.

Exactly Sam_SAS. There is no option available to remove the outside border of the table.

Look for help on STYLE.

I write code so I showed code that does what I want. The option should also exist where you set preferences to select the default style.

ballardw, is it possible to specify ODS options within Visual Analytics? You can specify themes, but those are different from ODS styles. (At least, I think so.)
