Hi:
Are you using any of the suboptions that normally impact the title??? Also, it depends on whether you mean the SAS title, which comes from a TITLE statement or an Excel header for printing, which comes from the PRINT_HEADER suboption.
You will have to look at the output in Print Preview mode to see the impact of the PRINT_HEADER suboption. the &L is the instruction for left-justifying the print header and the &R is the instruction for right-justifying the print header. You can read more about these and other options in the SAS log.
