Setting a Password in Excel Before Sending via Email

[laika_matias]

Hello,

I generate a report using PROC REPORT and then send it via email. Is there a way to set a password for the Excel file before sending it?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Hello,

It's not possible to set a password on an Excel file from SAS, it needs to be done on Excel.
