Export to Excel

[Lopes]

Good afternoon,

I need to export from SAS to Excel.

I tried with the proc export but it changed the format and it did not show the column names.

proc export

  data=WORK.xxx

  dbms=xls

  outfile="xxx.xls"

  replace;

run;

How can I export?

Thanks!

since you are in the EGuide GUI, you can just export using file --> export.

Insert "label" into the code before replace, this will export the labelled column names from SAS into excel. Mind you if you put labels onto the columns in SAS ie rather than UID you have the label "Unique ID variable", "Unique ID variable" is what will appear in Excel.

proc export

  data=WORK.xxx

  dbms=xls

  outfile="xxx.xls"

  label

  replace;

run;

If you have variable labels and wanted the SAS variable name to actually be output you could put this before your proc export statement

proc datasets lib=work memtype=data;

  modify xxx;

  attrib _all_ label=' ';

run;

Hope this helps.
