How to get some colums (not all columns) centered while using ODS html, pdf?

[leisas]

1. I created html report, by default, some columns aligned right, some left. If I used j=c, all of columns would be centered. I just need desired columns centered, not all of them. So how do I need to do. I attached a report sample, I need to get first column center.

2. I also make the title color from sky blue to navy blue. I assume that sky blue is the default color for SASWeb and I am unable to change it, is that correct?

Thanks a lot!

What code is used to make the report? Proc Print, Report and Tabulate allow you to provide many controls of appearance.

Title also allows overrides.

try

title color=green "your title text";

You can set color, justification, font and text size using options. See if your online help under Title statement has an entry for enhancing titles.

I used proc report:

ods html3 file="&path\q8.html" style=sasweb;

proc report data=q8 nowd;

&t1 "Number of felmales " &t2, &ft;run;

ods html3 clos;

where can I get needed columns justified/aligned?

Thanks!

Hi:

  Look at the attached screenshot. It is quite colorful and I made the cells all a bit wider so you could see the exact impact of the various JUST= and some of the other options and style overrides that I used. And then I made the DESC column smaller so you could see the justification happened for the entire cell. The code in the second screenshot (for PROC PRINT) is what I used to produce this output, since you did not say what procedure you were using. I only put a few obs into the dataset because I didn't have much time.

  At any rate, PROC REPORT can put STYLE= overrides in the PROC REPORT statement, the DEFINE statement, the BREAK and RBREAK statements, the COMPUTE statement. There are a lot of previous forum postings about using STYLE= overrides. These techniques work with PROC PRINT, PROC REPORT and PROC TABULATE. The doc on each procedure has good information on using STYLE= overrides. There are a few differences between PRINT and REPORT. PROC REPORT uses STYLE(COLUMN) instead of STYLE(DATA) and since PROC REPORT doesn't have a VAR statement, you would use your style override in a DEFINE statement for each variable or report item.

  The PROC REPORT doc is very good and there are a lot of good examples on how to write PROC REPORT code and use STYLE= overrides.
