Emailing HTML Results -- how to eliminate boxes on titles and narrow columns

[SASGeek]

Hello all,

Thanks to you, I "almost" have my answer for emailing embedded results. But I have two questions on formats:

1. How do I get rid of the box around the title? This shows up in the e-mail but not the actual HTML output.

2. General PROC REPORT question (but this in particular) -- how do I automatically create the proc report outputs so it looks like below (with the same alignment) but doesn't have the extra width AND doesn't wrap titles? See screen shot below.

Thank you. All ya'all are the best!

You may have to show the entire code for how you are generating that email. There are enough things interacting, possibly including your email program settings that some details may be needed. Include which ODS style is default for your SAS session or specified at the time the email is created.

You can control the width of the columns in proc report by providing style cellwidth setting. But I don't believe there is any "automagic" option that will shrink them to exactly what a column heading on one line needs. Cellpadding option may come into that as well as it sets a minimum amount of space around text so that it doesn't run into the lines.

Thanks - you were right -- I changed to HTML5 and the boxes were gone.

And thanks for confirming that there's no global column width settings.

Appreciate the help
