ODS Style Examples Generation

This script retrieves the list of all available ODS styles via the TEMPLATE procedure by redirecting the output to a temporary catalog. It then iterates through this list using a DATA step and uses CALL EXECUTE to dynamically generate an HTML report (based on PROC MEANS and sashelp.class) for each identified style. Note: The output path is configured for a Windows environment ('c:\ODS_test\').

Data Analysis

Type : SASHELP

Uses the 'sashelp.class' table for report generation and internal SAS metadata (PROC TEMPLATE) for the list of styles.

1 Code Block

DATA STEP

Explanation :
Specific command for the 'Display Manager' interface (PC SAS) to clear logs and output. Can be ignored or generate an error under SAS Viya/Studio depending on the configuration.

Copied!

1	dm 'log; clear; output; clear';

2 Code Block

PROC PRINTTO

Explanation :
Defines a temporary catalog as the file destination. Redirects standard output (PRINT) to this catalog, executes PROC TEMPLATE to list styles (which writes the list to the catalog), then restores standard output.

3 Code Block

DATA STEP

Explanation :
Reads the file containing the list of styles. For each style found, uses CALL EXECUTE to dynamically generate and execute SAS code that: 1) Opens an ODS HTML destination with the specified style, 2) Executes a PROC MEANS on sashelp.class, 3) Closes the ODS destination.

1	DATA _null_ ;
2	LENGTH style $ 17 ;
3	INFILE list missover ;
4	INPUT @'Styles.' style ;
5	IF style>' ' ;
