G'day.

 

I'm using Base SAS. I'm just learning Proc Report.

I'm using the nowd option in the proc report statement.

 

When I'm creating new code (that doesn't use proc report) after I run proc report, and hit 'Run' to test it, I get the warning: no output destinations active. Or, when I run other programs I get the warning message.

 

The only way I can get rid of it is if I close SAS completely and reopen.

 

Is there an easier way to get my output destinations back without having to close SAS completely?

 

Thank you!

NOWD should not be controlling that. 

 

That would be from an ODS [DESTINATION] CLOSE statement somewhere instead.

 

You can enable your destinations in a similar fashion:

 

ods listing;
ods html;
