Hi.
I am trying to trigger (run) a SAS stored process from Excel using SAS Excel ADDIn using VBA code. I am able to trigger Stored Process and get output in Excel. But when I am passing prompt values via VBA it is giving a "Run-time Error 429" as mentioned in the attached file. Please find my code below -
Sub InsertStoredProcesswithInputStream()
Application.DisplayStatusBar = True
Application.StatusBar = "Please Wait. Connecting SAS EG..."
Dim sas As SASExcelAddIn
Set sas = Application.COMAddIns.Item("SAS.ExcelAddIn").Object
Dim rngRange As Range
Set rngRange = Range(Cells(5, 1), Cells(Rows.Count, 1)).EntireRow
rngRange.ClearContents
Dim a1 As Range
Set a1 = Sheet1.Range("A5")
Dim prompts As SASPrompts
Set prompts = New SASPrompts
prompts.Add "dpt_nm", "Living"
sas.InsertStoredProcess "/Shared Data/ACoE_Stored_Processes_Test/reorder_sheet_test2", a1, prompts
End Sub
without this -
Dim prompts As SASPrompts
Set prompts = New SASPrompts
prompts.Add "dpt_nm", "Living"
Code runs fine and gives desired output.
Also, when I opened VBA I couldn't find SAS ADD-in 7.1 for Microsoft Office under tools->references
So, I browsed and selected "SAS.OfficeAddin.tlb" from sas installation folder from program files. after that I got SAS ADD-in 7.1 in the tools->references
Please help me resolve this issue
