Hi,

I get error message when I try to send olap data to excel. I choose the option file->Send to->Microsoft Excel.

This same thing works in SAS EG v.4.3 .

Is that all?

Maybe this is a candidate for a ticket to SAS tech support.

This sounds like an issue that you should track with SAS Technical Support. If you are seeing an exception message from EG, it might be a known issue or one that there is a hotfix for. SAS Tech Support can advise. They will also help you to gather additional details to diagnose.

Are you running EG in English while your Windows session is using a non-English regional settings? That information might also be of interest to Tech Support.
