Hi

I would like to make some additions to my previous posting:

let's say I have a SAS data set with just one variable TEXT, and I
have to create a report using data _null_, something simple like this:

data _null_;
  file "C:\Output\myfile.txt";
  put text;
run;

but instead of creating ASCII file "C:\Output\myfile.txt"  I have
to create MS Word file "C:\Output\myfile.doc"  I think that it can
be done through DDE.

One more thing: I cannot use MS word default settings, so I have
changed them (font name, font size, page orientation, page margins
etc.) and I have saved all these settings to MS Word template
"C:\Templates\mytemp.dot". So my questions would be:

1.      How to create report using data _null_ and send it to the MS Word
(in general);
2.      How to force MS Word to use  "C:\Templates\mytemp.dot"
3.      How to save the report to "C:\Output\myfile.doc"


I belive that all this can be also using ODS, but again how and how can
I use my settings (font name, font size, page orientation, page margins
etc.) then?

Thank you for your help
