Sounds like an Excel forum question not SAS.

SAS would likely require creating a single data set and then exporting that set.

Many users here don't want to download Excel files because of virus potential, others have such things blocked by security software or organization policy. 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.

Define a libname:

libname book1 xlsx "path_to_file/book1.xlsx";

Then SET all datasets:

data all;
set
  order
  return
  people
;
run;
