ODS EXCEL Clickable external hyperlink

Dick_Pickett — Tue, 11 Sep 2018 12:47:00 GMT

If a hyperlink is in a separate cell without any other text, you can double-click on the cell, then click on a different cell, to turn the link into an active hyperlink. I want the hyperlink to be clickable directly from ODS EXCEL without going in and out of the cell in Excel.

Is this possible in ODS Excel?

Here is test code.

define style styles.mystyle ;

Directly give excel formula in your SAS Dataset.

Example:

data class;
set sashelp.class;
Display_Link='=HYPERLINK("https://communities.sas.com/","SAS Community")';
run;


  ods excel file="/usr/apps/sasdata/CAO/CAOSec/local_access/CAO_DropBox/Kiran/test/hyperlink.xlsx" style=statistical
      options( suppress_bylines='yes' sheet_interval='none' );
proc print data=class;
  run;

  ods excel close;

     Option 1
         Double-click the hyperlink cell that contains the web address.
         Click any other cell in the worksheet. This activates the hyperlink.

         If you have multiple rows to make available, create a new column in Excel with a formula that uses a hyperlink similar to this =HYPERLINK(cell number)

I'm looking for a 3rd option that will allow ="~{style [textdecoration=underline foreground=blue from option 1 to be applied to option 2.

Have you tried using PROC REPORT in conjunction with the STYLE options?

Re: ODS EXCEL Clickable external hyperlink

Dick_Pickett — Tue, 11 Sep 2018 17:33:26 GMT

Solution

      compute d1 ;
            IF d1='=HYPERLINK("[https://goo.gl/G4a0A9]", "https://www.cms.gov/Medicare/Quality-Initiatives-Patient-Assessment-Instruments/Value-Based-Programs/Other-VBPs/SNF-VBP.html")' THEN DO;
               CALL define(_col_,'style','style=[textdecoration=underline foreground=blue]');
            END;

FYI - if you put the code in code blocks it's easier to read and follow your posts/problems.
