Good Afternoon!

 

I am trying to write an export proc to export mutiple data sets into different sheets in one Excel book.  Please see my query below:

 

proc export data=results.TownChanges outfile='\\athena\Projects\Kenya EABL RA\Data Management\SAS Setup\Kenya EABL MRA Field Queries.xlsx' dbms=xlsx replace;
sheet=TownChanges;
run;

 

I continuesly get the same error:  ERROR: DBMS type XLSX not valid for export.

 

I could succesfully export to seperate CSVs but no matter what other format I use, I get an error.  Could someone please assist me?

 

Kind Regards

If you don't have a licence see this macro

http://www.sascommunity.org/wiki/A_Poor/Rich_SAS_Users_Proc_Export

 

As well, look into TAGSETS.EXCELXP

Thank you for the fast feedback. I do not seems to have a lisence to PC files. Unfortunately, I am a brand new SAS and neither the Macro or TAGSETS.EXCELXP makes any sense to me 😞

 

Can you please explain a bit more?

The macro has a paper and presentation please go through them. 

 

Examples of Tagsets are abundant as well, here's a link to,the official demo.

Thank for suggesting Tagsets.  It solved my problem.  I wrotes the below code and I now achieve the desired results.

I would avoid proc export, you have greater control with ods tagsets.excelxp:

ods tagsets.excelxp file="abc.xlsx" options=(sheet_name="MyFirstSheet");
proc report data=xyz;
 ...;
run;
ods tagsets.excelxp options=(sheet_name="MySecondSheet");
proc report data=ert;
 ...;
run;
ods tagsets.excelxp close;

You can push out all kinds of funky formats, and styling and such like through the report, plus apply filters etc.

I have not tried this but I heard that the libname engine is now part of workstation sas(sometimes called pc sas).

 

This should copy all data sets in library sashelp to multiple sheets in a workbook

 

libname xel "d:/xls/sashelp.xlsx";

proc copy in=sashelp out=xel;

run;quit;

 

I nice feature of this is that you get nice sheetnames and a named ranges with the same name as the sheet.
