Spaces in proc odstext

[SASdevAnneMarie]

Hello Experts,

I'm wonderign how to put the spaces befor "Fixes" and "Variables" in proc odstext in my e-mail

proc odstext;
		p "Bonjour,";
		p "";
		
		p "Pour lalalalla.";
		p "";
		p "Ces lalala:";
		p "      - Fixes lalala,";
		p "      - Variables, lalalal.";
		p "";
	
		p "";
		p "Bien cordialement,";
		p "";
        run;

		ods _all_ close;
		filename myemail clear;

 Thank you for your help !

Are you sending a pure-text mail or html?

[SASdevAnneMarie]

ods listing close;

it's html:
ods html body=myemail options(pagebreak="no")
rs=none style=minimal;

options nocenter nobyline pagesize=max;
ods escapechar='^';
data _null_;

I used the style-option asis=on when creating excel files with strange indentation, not sure if this work with html + mail.

Use TAB character instead ?

p "  '09'x     - Fixes lalala,";
p "  '09'x    - Variables, lalalal.";

Finally, I found this : https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Programming/Proc-ODS-text-in-PowerPoint/td-p/354175 

%let spaces=^{unicode 00A0}^{unicode 00A0}^{unicode 00A0}^{unicode 00A0}^{unicode 00A0};

proc odstext;
  p "Hello";
  p "&spaces Hello";
  p "&spaces &spaces Hello";
run;
