Charles,
My most recent SAS book includes a chapter entitled "Distributing
Organisation Charts without SAS/IntrNet" (see below), which includes
code to generate a hierarchy from a list of parent-child records similar
to that created by PROC HIER (in the good old days!). The chapter then
uses this data to create static HTML reports in the form of an
organisation chart.

"Power User's Guide to SAS Programming" brings together a wealth of
ideas about strategic and tactical solutions to everyday situations
experienced when transferring, extracting, processing and reporting
data. Most of the solutions can be achieved using the SAS components you
already license, so you won't need to throw money at the problems.
You'll learn about the following:
* balance processing and maintenance efficiency when programming in SAS.
* implement a simple data warehouse using just Base SAS.
* use ODS to create spreadsheets, generate report files in parallel, and
replay reports.
* use R to create content for SAS ODS reports.
* access SAS ODS through the web using Perl.
* build static HTML with Base SAS.
* use Enterprise Guide to control structured folders of SAS programs.
* appreciate the functionality of Enterprise Guide by comparing with the
Java interface to SAS Integration Technologies.
