Hi:
According to this Tech Support note:
http://support.sas.com/kb/34/138.html
A physical path on disk is the
least reliable method for referencing an image file.
You might wish to switch to a UNC name or a URL method, as described in the note, or work with Tech Support on your specific stored process question -- since they can look at all your code and your image location in addition to other factors and make specific recommendations.
Other factors that might impact the use of a banner image are:
1) What Office product are you using with the Add-in to receive stored process results (Word, Excel, PowerPoint)??? It might be possible that one Office product will use banner images, while another Office product does not.
2) What is the result type that you are using? It is possible that the default SASReport XML result type might not use a banner image: while HTML results from the stored process MIGHT use a banner image. As another example of this -- I would not expect CSV stored process results, opened in Excel, to use a banner image, at all, because a CSV file does not use ANY style. You say that you are overriding _ODSSTYLESHEET reserved macro variable -- but are there any other overrides in your code, such as for _ODSDEST or _ODSSTYLE??
3) If you are not overriding _ODSDEST or _ODSSTYLE, what stored process options are set in your Add-in application? Word, Excel and Powerpoint all have option settings that specify how stored process results should be received by the application (as SASReport XML; also as CSV or HTML for Excel; or, as RTF or HTML for Word)?? Have you changed that setting? Have you changed the option choice that relates to using styles???
