Thanks Eric. PREHTML is exactly what I needed. With your permission, I would like to post a note about this (and point to this thread) as a Tip of the Day on sasCommunity.org.

I've got a png image that I need to insert into PDF and HTML documents is reports produced by the Stored Process Server. I am using the same image in both (have it on both the SAS application and web servers since in HTML SAS generates an image tag, but in PDF it inserts it). For the PDF destination it works fine and is the right size. But when displayed in the HTML report the image (a logo) is way too big. I know I could probably request that the graphics folks create two versions. But I'd like to avoid that. Is it possible to specify scaling for the HTML destination. I found sample syntax to do that in 9.1.3. But there is a usage note that says to not use that syntax in 9.2 as its done differently in 9.2. But I can't find any references to how to do this in 9.2. TIA.

Thanks Cynthia. Just tested it and it seems to work for a single group variable. More testing to do, but looks good so far. Thx for the pointer. Now if only I can get it to say continued or something like that on the sucessive pages. That would be the icing on the cake. I tried a few things using temp vars and posttext, but could not get it to work. Do you have any ideas/suggestions?

Am using proc report and my user has asked about a feature I thought I saw somewhere online. But I can't seem to find it now that I am actually looking for it. The issue is to show group/order values on the first row of a new page when the group extends to a second page. I seem to recall an example doing it with temp/data step variables in a compute block. Is this possible?

Thanks Cynthia. I get different results that you did. For me (in 9.2), ods rtf seems to work and ods tagsets.rtf does not. And if I try PDF, it includes the text for all three in the title. I will ask TS to comment on/update the KB article to include a working example for 9.2 that includes rtf, pdf and html.

This is an ODS (SAS 9.2) question that is specific to the Stored Process server but am asking it here since it is more about ODS that BI/EBI. I have a set of stored processes that stream HTML back to the user's browser, but also create pdf and rtf versions of the reports that are available via the replay program. I want to use the preimage style attribute to insert an image into title line 1. However for the HTML destination the name/path for the image has to be the web accessible path on the web server to the image since ODS is generating an img tag. However for the PDF and RTF destinations, the name/path for the image has to be the physical location on the SAS Compute Server. I can put the images on both servers, but I don't see how to specify different values in a single title statement. Someone told me that inline formatting in 9.2 might be able to do this. Any/all input/help/advice is appreciated.

I created a poll to get a sense of the members opinions. I thought this would be a good way to evaluate polls. Note that I believe you can only vote once. There is no discussion and you can't see who voted or how. So it might only be good to get a sense of the direction. This might dovetail nice with having a link to a wiki page for the details.

And I was notified of your post since I am watching this thread.

DonH · ‎04-29-2010

And I just got notified even though I was not watching the thread. I wonder if there is a config issue that needs to be set? Ideally someone should be able to say they want to be notified of new threads, but then decide to NOT watch them.

DonH · ‎04-29-2010

I got the notification. And have now selected to not watch this thread. So Lainie if you could reply so I can verify that I am not notified we can be done with this question.

DonH · ‎04-28-2010

Note that at the forum level you can watch the forum. I checked that choice and will presumably be notified whenever a thread is created.

Anyone know what the max length is for the quoted string? Based on the tests I've run it appears to be a little less that 32,755. The online doc does not provide any details regarding a limit as far as I can tell.

I am trying to migrate a site that has a number of HTML pages that they create with DATA _NULL_ steps. When run in the Stored Process Server via the Web Mid-Tier app, they just use the _webout fileref. They would like to run these same reports in EG. But it does not appear that EG supports the _webout fileref. Is there a facility that will allow for a Stored Process when run from EG to have content to be written to the HTML destination via PUT statements in a DATA step?

Wanted to close the loop with the solution provided by TS: =============== The Unix file permissions of files created via an Enterprise Guide session are inherited from the userid that starts the Object Spawner process. If you'd like to alter the file permissions for EG users that launch workspace server processes you'll need to add a umask command to the WorkspaceServer script, WorkspaceServer.sh. This script is located in your configuration directory at: / /Lev1/SASApp/WorkspaceServer In your case you would add umask 113 to the script somewhere prior to the the following line: cmd="$SAS_COMMAND... Save the WorkspaceServer.sh script and restart the Object Spawner and any existing EG sessions. =============== Assuming TS says OK, I will likely post this as a Tip of the Day on sasCommunity.org

DonH · ‎03-23-2010

Yes, EG is running on Windows - as part of an EBI environment where all the SAS data files and code are to be saved on the Unix server. The Unix admin has set things up so the default umask is 664. I have confirmed that works for a number of applications. But EG seems to not be using the default umask. So my question is how I tell EG to honor the profile information set for the user on Unix.
