Many users here don't want to download Excel files because of virus potential, others have such things blocked by security software. Also if you give us Excel we have to create a SAS data set and due to the non-existent constraints on Excel data cells the result we end up with may not have variables of the same type (numeric or character) and even values.

Instructions here: https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Communities-Library/How-to-create-a-data-step-version-of-your-data-AKA-generate/ta-p/258712 will show how to turn an existing SAS data set into data step code that can be pasted into a forum code box using the </> icon or attached as text to show exactly what you have and that we can test code against.

If you have an Excel issue, you should go to a Microsoft-oriented forum.

If you need SAS help, post example datasets as DATA step code with DATALINES, and the expected result. We can then recreate your dataset exactly in our environment for development and testing with just a simple copy/paste and submit.

I am not sure what you mean. And looking the spreadsheet you posted I am not sure what types of variables you have or even what the variable names are.
