OMS to Word problems

[Dennis Deck]

I was trying to get OMS to save just some core output tables from various commands (Crosstabs, Means, and CTables) in a Word doc but could not see how to get around some limitations.  Here is sample code:

OMS /Select Tables

        /If Subtypes= [ 'Report' 'Crosstabulation' 'Custom Table' ]

       /Destination Format=Doc Outfile="C:\Temp\SPSSexample.doc" .

This selects the informative tables from the 3 commands but I also need to:

 a) suppress the title (eg, Custom Table, Crosstabs) - which is always copied over

 b) prevent a table from breaking into multiple parts  if the default column widths (which are pretty wide) are wider than the margins (a single table get broken into 3-4 tables in the output even though they could easily fit with smaller margins)

 c) pass text to Word and format with a Heading style (I can pass text with TITLE but there does not seem to be an easy way to apply a format)

 d) transpose a table output from MEANS  that that would be

Thanks for any suggestions!
