Hello expert,

when I use ods tagset excelxp to produce xml file and opened in excel, if the last column (the first column at the right side) has a lot of content, then it will go beyond the column boundary. How do I conceal some of its content or expand it vertically like adjust the row height, I have tried wraptext="no" and row_height option but it didn't work.

you can run the following sample code to see the issue to display column a:


data a;
length a $500;
input a $;
cards;

;
run;

ODS LISTING CLOSE;

ODS TAGSETS.EXCELXP FILE="c:/a.xls"                              
OPTIONS(SHEET_NAME='a'
ABSOLUTE_COLUMN_WIDTH='5'
AUTOFIT_HEIGHT="YES"
WRAPTEXT="NO"
)
style=Printer;

proc print data=a;
run;
ods tagsets.ExcelXP close;

HI:

Since TAGSETS.EXCELXP does not support graphic images of any kind, I wonder if you have posted this in the wrong forum. I would expect this to be posted in the ODS and Base Reporting Forum.

I don't actually know if you can delete it. But it doesn't matter, you can just repost it in the right place. My guess is that you will get more feedback in the other forum.
