Hi:
BODYTITLE is working as designed. You can either get the title and footnotes in the header and footer area of the word processor OR you get the TITLE at the top of the table (generally on page 1) and the FOOTNOTE at the end of the table (on page ???) -- by using BODYTITLE.
This may change for SAS 9.2, but for now, this is the way that BODYTITLE works.
So you may have to work with Tech Support to decide whether you want BODYTITLE or not. You can put lines into your RTF file by using RTF control strings as shown in the code at these postings (using BRDRT control string).

Another thought is to try the JOURNAL style and see if you like the way that the output looks. When questions like this come up in class, I find that JOURNAL comes closest to the look that most of my students want when they describe this kind of report.
