Results management, a data manipulation task particularly relevant to SAS report generation, is a common effort that too often results in dull fixed-font DATA _NULL_, PROC REPORT or similar tables. In this paper the author presents a macro he developed that instead produces customized RTF tables with less effort than analogous fixed-font programming. The primary programming objective has become to spend as little time as possible massaging SAS output in favor of data analysis. To minimize format programming, the author developed a highly flexible macro that generates Rich Text Format (RTF) documents from any combination of SAS data sets.
