Output Delivery System: The Basics and Beyond

Revising the Example for OpenVMS

To run the code on the OpenVMS operating system, you just need two changes. First, you need to set up a fileref for the path. Second, the file naming conventions are slightly different and need to be modified.

filename odsout "device:[temp]";
ODS HTML FRAME="OSframe.html"
         BODY="OSbody.html"
         CONTENTS="OScontents.html"
         PATH=ODSOUT (URL=NONE);

ODS RTF FILE="device:[temp]OSfile.rtf";

ODS PDF FILE="device:[temp]OSfile.pdf";

proc univariate data=clinical;
   var age;
   symbol value=star;
   probplot age /normal(mu=est sigma=est) pctlminor;
run;

ODS _ALL_ CLOSE;

The FILENAME statement sets up an appropriate location for all of the output files. This fileref is then used as the path. To use this example, replace "device" with ...
