ODS Excelxp PROC TABULATE multiple sheets

[fieldsa83]

Hi I have

PROC TABULATE data=have;

class date var1 var2 var3;

var age;

weight finalwt;

table (all var2),(all var1)*(all var3),date*age*(median);

run;

it creates a 'page; for each var2. How can I get each of these 'pages' as a separate sheet in an excel output?

Hi:
We need to see your code, ALL the code that you've tried, including ODS statements.

Using ODS EXCEL (if you have SAS 9.4) to create an .XLSX file or ODS TAGSETS.EXCELXP to create a .XML file are the 2 easiest ways to do what you want. However, you need to tell us how you are currently creating output (your ODS statements) in order to explain.

Here's a simple example using SASHELP.SHOES that illustrates using ODS EXCEL:

ods excel file='c:\temp\mult_sheet.xlsx'
    options(sheet_interval='table');
proc tabulate data=sashelp.shoes;
where region in ('Asia', 'Pacific');
 class region product;
 var sales;
 table all region,
       product all,
	   sales*(min mean sum max);
run;
ods excel close;

Actually wow, this worked! It  created separate sheets for each 'page'.

I think this is the first time I've managed to get something to work first shot in SAS!

Follow up if you don't know: do you think there's a way to name each sheet what the variable in the 'page' group is?

For example it's (all sex) so 3 sheets are being properly produced "Tabulate 1 - Table 1"; "Tabulate 2 - Table 1"; "Tabulate 3 - Table 1".

Is there a way to get it "All"; "Male"; "Female" (to correspond with the variable values)?

Hi:

  Well, you'll have to generate the "All" table separately and then use BY group processing for the sheet naming,as shown below.

Otherwise, you only choice is to macro-ize your program so that you can create 3 tables and use a macro variable for the sheet_name suboption.

proc sort data=sashelp.shoes out=twoshoes;
  by region;
  where region in ('Asia', 'Pacific');
run;

ods excel file='c:\temp\mult_sheet2.xlsx'
    options(sheet_interval='table' sheet_name='All');
proc tabulate data=twoshoes;
 class product;
 var sales;
 table product all,
	   sales*(min mean sum max)/ box = 'Asia and Pacific';
run;

options nobyline;
ods excel options(sheet_interval='table' sheet_name='#ByVal1' suppress_bylines='on');
proc tabulate data=twoshoes;
where region in ('Asia', 'Pacific');
by region;
 class region product;
 var sales;
 table product all,
	   sales*(min mean sum max);
run;
 
ods excel close;

here's what the sheets look like:
