The work.inputdata file is the SAS dataset that will be used create the pivot table.

The output excel file that should include the pivot table is the output.example1.xlsx.

 

 

Please help me.

 

ODS tagsets.ExcelXP

file="work.inputdata " /*sas dataset that feeds the pivot*/

options(

button_text = "Create PivotTable"

auto_excel = "yes"

pivotrow = "month"

pivotcol = "shirts,bottoms"

pivotdata = "sales"

excel_save_file="output.example1.xlsx"

quit="NO"

);

Title1 "Example 1 - Create the First Pivot Table";

You're mixing options and ODS destinations. 

 

The options youre trying to use are for TABLEEDITOR and you're using ExcelXP. 

 

Unfrotunately AFAIK there isn't an easy way to create a direct pivot table in Excel format. 

 

If you have SAS 9.4M3 then you can also try ODS Excel but it's not exact either. You're better of writing a short VB script to create the pivot table.
