Where does your filename (weboutput.rtf) come from ??
I do something similar with csv, to start Excel, and it works fine with
filename='temp.csv' ...
data _null_;
file _webout;
rc=appsrv_header('Content-type','application/msword');
rc=appsrv_header('Content-disposition','attachment;filename=temp.rtf');
run;
who knows this works ??
good luck anyway ...

Subject: Creating non-HTML output from IntrNet
I have been trying all day to generate output from SAS/Intrnet using a
very basic design
I have a web page with just a single submit button. Clicking on that
button should execute a small SAS program that prints 100 observations
of a single variable from a dataset. Everything works fine if I want
to output an HTML page... but if I want RTF, PDF, or anything else, it
does not work. All I get for RTF is an ASCII string of what the RTF
files looks like... several hundred lines of this
"brdrcf1\clbrdrl\brdrs\brdrw15\brdrcf1\cltxlrtb\clvertalt\". For PDF,
I get the error message destination printer "" is not found. No output
is generated.
I will list my code below.
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
max
Here is the HTML code for the button:
<HTML>
<BODY>
<FORM ACTION="http://myserver/sasweb/cgi-bin/broker.exe?" METHOD=get>
<INPUT TYPE=hidden name=_service value=default>
<INPUT TYPE=hidden name=_program value=trydata.sas>
<INPUT TYPE=submit VALUE=submit>
</FORM>
</BODY>
</HTML>
Here is the SAS code for trydata.sas:
data _null_;
file _webout;
rc=appsrv_header('Content-type','application/msword');
rc=appsrv_header('Content-disposition','attachment;
filename=weboutput.rtf');
run;
ods rtf file=_webout;
options obs=100;
proc print data=zzz.t2;
var track;
run;
ods rtf close;
ods listing;
[text/html]
