Emailing results of proc report in pdf format to outlook

[new_sas_user_4]

Hello everyone,

I am able to create a proc report in SAS.

I want to be able to send this report as a pdf in outlook. 

What are the steps to achieve this?

Any documentation available would also be a great help!

Thanks!

ods pdf file="YourPathHere\class.pdf";

proc report data=sashelp.class;
run;

I just have the proc report portion ready...nothing before or after it....like odstext/ods pdf/ods proclabel

I want to send it from my email address with subject and body of the mail etc..

This is my first time trying to do this...sorry if my questions sound lame..

Hi:

  First, before you do anything else speak to your SAS Administrator or mail administrator. In order to set up emailing you have to be able to have some system options turned on that enable emailing.

  Once this step is done, you should be able to perform emailing as shown in this paper http://support.sas.com/resources/papers/proceedings11/300-2011.pdf on page 7. The paper shows making an attachment from an RTF file and then mailing it. But the same technique works for ODS PDF.

Hope this helps, Cynthia
