Usage Note 21096: Creating a series of PDF and RTF files with ODS may generate errors when
run interactively
Generating a series of RTF or PDF files interactively from a Windows
platform may generate an error if more than 20 files are created. This
error occurs when the Results Viewer attempts to open all of the file as
they are generated. A dialog box opens and and notifies you that the
application has to close.
To circumvent the problem, we need to prevent the Results Viewer from
attempting to open each file. This is done by following the steps
below.
From the menu in SAS, select:
Tools => Options => Preferences => Results
Unselect the "View Results as they are Generated" option.
