The ODS CHTML statement is part of the ODS markup family of statements. ODS statements in the markup family produce output that is formatted using one of many different markup languages such as HTML (Hypertext Markup Language), XML (Extensible Markup Language), and LaTeX. You can specify a markup language that SAS supplies, or create one of your own and store it as a user-defined markup language.
