Hi,

Using 9.2 TS Level 2MO, on Win XP Pro, the title() method seems to work correctly. I get TITLE1 & TITLE2 as expected (no blank lines in between).

ods listing close;
ods pdf file='c:\temp\test.pdf';
ods rtf file='c:\temp\test.rtf';
data _null_;
set sashelp.cars end=_last;

if _n_=1 then do;
declare odsout ShortForm();
ShortForm.title(start: 1, text: 'Yearly Report');
ShortForm.title(start: 2, text: 'Notice to buyers of Products');
ShortForm.table_start();
end;

ShortForm.row_start();
ShortForm.format_cell(text: 'Test');
ShortForm.row_end();

if _last then ShortForm.table_end();

run;

ods listing;
ods pdf close;
ods rtf close;


I added values for the method's optional START argument so that the 2nd title doesn't overwrite the first one (as TITLE1).

I can't explain your results. I would expect your code to define TITLE1 twice.

I have the following:
data _null_;
set sales;
if _n_=1 then do;
declare odsout ShortForm();
ShortForm.title(text:carb12||'Yearly Report');
ShortForm.title(text:carb12||'Notice to buyers of
Products' );
end;
.
.
.
run;
The outputs are a PDF and RTF files.

Problem on the first page there is blank line between the titles!! Tiles
on all other pages are fine.

Why?

Or is this:
WARNING: Data step interface is experimental in this release.
the explanation?

I use SAS 9.1.3 SP4 on Windows XP.

Thanks,

Masoud
