Others who have been in similar situations have made use of the FILESRV program: http://support.sas.com/rnd/web/intrnet/filesrv/filesrv.html The first program writes files to a directory on the server, and then when needed, you run a program that uses FILESRV to serve the file. This is especially helpful for serving image files. You will need to use the AUTHDSN argument to point to a SAS dataset that specifies which directories authorized. Vince DelGobbo SAS R&D ...

Have you checked the value of CURDATE when run through the stored process to make sure it is valid? I'm guessing that the error could be encountered if CURDATE is not defined or contains illegal characters. Vince DelGobbo SAS R&D ... View more

Your second stored process could use the Publishing Framework (part of SAS Integration Technologies) to retrieve the package. I don't know how "simple" it is, but here is a starting point: http://support.sas.com/documentation/cdl/en/publishdg/61497/HTML/default/pkgintf.htm Is it a requirement to create package output in the first stored process? It might be easier to write the original files to a directory under the control of a Web server, then point to them later. Vince DelGobbo SAS R&D ... View more

If the machines running Enterprise Guide can access the location where the SAS code for the STP is stored, your best option may be to simply include the SAS code into the process flows when needed. You may have to make small modifications to the code to get it to behave properly in Enterprise Guide. If so, save a copy and include that into the process flows. Vince DelGobbo SAS R&D ...

I'm pretty sure that with MSOffice2K you only get a reference to the image file; it is not embedded in the document. If you have a Web server or other network-accessible drive, you can alter your SAS code to store the image there, and then make sure that the URL in the HTML file is correct. This is not an optimal solution because you must maintain the generated image files. Vince DelGobbo SAS R&D ... View more

I took data _null_'s first sample code and converted it into a stored process. I tested the code on a stored process server running SAS®9.2 creating HTML, RTF or PDF. It also works with streaming or package output. [pre] data class; set sashelp.class; run; data class; modify class; remove; run; data _null_; if (eof) then do; call symput('_ODSOPTIONS', "text='No Obs to report'"); end; stop; set class(keep=name) end=eof; run; %STPBEGIN; title 'Title for report'; proc report data=class nowd list; run; quit; %STPEND; [/pre] Vince DelGobbo SAS R&D ...
