Problem Note 35485: Column headers might be missing from PROC REPORT output to an ODS destination
If PROC REPORT code contains a DEFINE statement with the NOZERO option, and the code also includes a COMPUTE BEFORE block or a BREAK BEFORE statement with the PAGE option, column headers might be missing in the resulting output report. This problem only occurs when the output is routed to an ODS destination.
To circumvent the problem, change the COMPUTE BEFORE block to a COMPUTE AFTER block. For the BREAK BEFORE statement, the workround would be to change the BREAK BEFORE statement to a BREAK AFTER statement, or remove the PAGE option from the BREAK BEFORE statement.

For software releases that are not yet generally available, the Fixed
