Excel ungrouping

Bogusval — Thu, 05 Apr 2018 01:45:29 GMT

When multiple data sets are exported to excel using proc export sheets statement. They seem to be grouped together. In excel they need to be ungrounded using the ungroup option. Is it possible to export multiple sheets without grouping them?

Thank you for your help

I think that's a bug and it's fixed in the next release...there may be a hotfix but I'm not sure.

I am using Sas 9.2 so yes an older version. We have 9.3 but could never get the pc file share to work. I could try 9.4 to see if that helps but I am not sure if we would have the same pc file issue when using proc export

thank you
