PROC DOCUMENT: replaying an LST file and preserving the page breaks.

[RichardP]

Hello, 

I have a number of LST files which I would like to replay into an RTF document. This works well with one exception, the page breaks in the LST files are not being preserved in the RTF document. I find this strange since if I import the LST file into Word using Insert/Object/Text from file the page breaks are preserved. I am using the following code - 

proc document name=import(write);
import textfile="C:\ListingType1_Slope.lst" to ^;
list/ details;
run;

options orientation=landscape ls=max;
ods rtf file='C:\replay_new.rtf';

proc document name=import;
replay;
run;
quit;
ods _all_ close;

Is this correct behaviour? Is there anyway to preserve the page breaks?

any help much appreciated!

regards,

RIchard

Just a quick addition to the issue above. If I replay to the listing destination the page feeds are also lost. So LST to ODS LISTING results in missing page feeds.
