Reindeer - Result Render tool for SAS outputs

About

The Reindeer Result Render open source tool contains a VBA macro which can be used to render multiple outputs created with SAS® into one Word document which can be exported to PDF as well.

Currently listing (.lst or .txt) and rtf outputs as well as graphics are supported. Detailed documentation is available in the file containing the macro as well called "Reindeer.docm".
