suppressing application start in sas ods

[deleted_user]

Hello,

when I execute the following code:

ODS HTML FILE = 'P:\TEST.HTML';
PROC PRINT DATA=IN3 NOOBS;
TITLE;
VAR SUBJID GENDER DOB AGE LBDT VISIT_ID BUN2 CREA ALB C_G MDRD CAL_MDRD DIFF HT;
RUN;
ODS HTML CLOSE;

SAS starts Internet Explorer automatically. If it is RTF output, then MS Word (etc etc). Is there anyway I can suppress the automatic opening of the destination file?

Thank you.

James

1) DESELECT the choice "View results as they are generated" and

2)Click radio button for "Preferred web browser" instead of internal browser
