Hi:

  Typically, you use a STYLE(area)= override in the PROC REPORT syntax or else you change the style template. Here's an example of the using the override in the PROC REPORT syntax.

If you feel like digging, Vince Del Gobbo's index is a great place to find the answers.

Find the topic in the first column and then it tells you what paper and page has the answer. There's usually code examples.

Be prepared to see fewer colors than expected if you use close shades. Excel has a habit of taking colors that are similar and only displaying one close its default list.
