Create password protected Excel file

[MilanVlcek]

Hi. Is there a way how to create a password protected Excel file? I've wet through the PROC EXPORT documentation and didn't find anything useful. But maybe I'm missing something. Thank you for your help. Milan

@MilanVlcek Hi and welcome to the SAS Community.

I don't think this ability exists in either PROC EXPORT or the ODS Excel Destination. You can try to go with the example in Sample 31328: Creating password-protected Excel files with SAS® software, though I haven't tried it myself. Good luck 🙂
