creating tabs in excel file

sasmom — Thu, 09 Jun 2016 14:06:12 GMT

I want to create an excel file with two tabs, sheet1 and sheet2. I want table1 and table2 data on a tab and table3 data in the another tab. Below is my code. I tried all options for sheet_interval. The 'sheet_interval = none' option create one tab with three tables. All the other options (page, bygroup, table and proc) create three tabs. The table1 and table2 data come on two different tabs.

Thanks for your help!

ods listing close;

ods tagsets.ExcelXP style=journal file="excel_file.xls"

options(sheet_name=sheet1' autofilter='none' orientation='landscape'

sheet_interval='none'

SKIP_SPACE= '5');

proc print data=table1 noobs

style(header) = { font_style=italic font_weight = bold font_face = "calibri" font_size = 10pt just = c}

style(data) = {font_face = "Calibri" font_size = 10pt background=$nfmt.foreground=white};

run;

proc print data=table2 noobs

style(header) = { font_style=italic font_weight = bold font_face = "calibri" font_size = 10pt just = c}

style(data) = {font_face = "Calibri" font_size = 10pt};

run;

ods tagsets.ExcelXP options(sheet_name='sheet2' autofilter='all' orientation='landscape'

frozen_headers='Yes');

proc print data=table3 noobs

style(header) = { font_style=italic font_weight = bold font_face = "calibri" font_size = 10pt just = c}

style(data) = {font_face = "Calibri" font_size = 10pt};

ods tagsets.ExcelXP close;

This should work:

ods tagsets.excelxp file="s:\temp\rob\temp.xml" options(sheet_interval="none" sheet_name="First");
proc report data=sashelp.class nowd;
  columns _all_;
run;
proc report data=sashelp.class nowd;
  columns _all_;
run;
ods tagsets.excelxp options(sheet_interval="table" sheet_name="Next");
proc report data=sashelp.class nowd;
  columns _all_;
run;
ods tagsets.excelxp close;

Using the following line will tell Excel to start a new sheet. Anything that follows this should be on the same tab. If you want three sheets, you'd have two of these lines - one before the code for each tab, and the initial statement of options.

ods tagsets.excelxp options(sheet_interval='none');
