Hi @varma1987, @Cynthia_sas and @ballardw,
I really appreciate your question and the effort to solve the problem. The solution requires a different implementation of Microsoft Word/RTF in PROC REPORT and the issue is related with the concept of 'breaking a cell across pages'. The latest PROC REPORT document mentioned an option of this idea, and the Tech Support might have a solution for it.
Here is an example how Microsoft Word/RTF solves this problem:
I opened a Word document, insert a 3X3 table; I made the first row as Header row and allowed cell break in the second row (all in table option), nothing on the third row; and save it as an RTF file.
I made 3 headers (A, B and C) in the first row; copied the text of your question, and pasted it in the cell of second row and column B 3 times. Now this cell grows big and across 2 pages. See the attached for yourselves.
Also note Microsoft Word/RTF handles pagination very nicely, and you don't have to worry about where to break a page. You can try your data in that cell and see how it is handled.
Many Thanks,
Jianmin Long
