Were you doing any graphics earlier in that SAS session. It sounds like that was the case.

Ya: Thanks for your response. Actually, it was a Proc Print, not any Graph procs. Surprisingly, this morning I ran the same program, and I found no such Warnings. It remains a mystery to me. One possibility - and this is simply my guess - is that rebooting the computer may have set everything straight. Thanks again. Have a great day. Neal

Looks lile you have SAS/Graph code inside the ods rtf, and you did not specify the dev option in goptions statement, which by default will go dev=WIN, but it is not allowed in ods/rtf, therefore ods rtf switch to sasemf and issues the warning.

Try to add a goptions statement:

ods listing close; ods rtf file=...

proc ...

goptions dev=sasemf; proc gplot...

..

ods rtf close;
