ods EXCELXP error in 9

sunilreddy — Wed, 07 Jan 2015 15:36:24 GMT

getting Error message "ERROR: No body file. TAGSETS.EXCELXP output will not be created." in 9.4 where same statement is showing as Warning in 9.2 and opening in excel.

But getting error in 9.4 by using same excel statements

Any idea How to avoid below error

18        +*ProcessBody;
19        +ods listing close;
20        +data _null_;
21        + rc= stpsrv_header('Content-type', 'application/vnd.ms-excel');
22        + rc= stpsrv_header('Content-disposition', 'attachment;
23        + filename= Status Report.xls');
24        +run;

Your MPRINT shows no File= as part of the tagsets.ExcelXP declaration.

Hi: When you use STPSRV_HEADER for your stored process, you do NOT code an explicit filename for the FILE= option. Instead you specify either BODY=_webout or FILE=_webout. Please see this previous forum posting:
