I once wrote something in SAS/AF on OS/2 that downloaded data from the mainframe, massaged it, prompted the user to load letterhead into the printer and created some pretty slick-looking bills. As I recall, it wasn't especially painful to set up and was pretty easy for the users. I'm positive that I also used it for something else entirely mainframe-based, but can no longer remember what.

Remember? It's still part of SAS/FSP 1 proc fsletter;run; NOTE: PROCEDURE FSLETTER used (Total process time): real time 4.68 seconds cpu time 0.22 seconds I cannot recall ever coming up with a need for it but it's still in the tool box awaiting its turn.
