Hi, 

 

I'm having trouble importing an excel file with the IMPORT procedure 

 

proc import datafile= "/folders/myfolders/m2_pizza.xlsx"
run;

Thanks! I wound up adding the DBMS option as well as the other option where Output where it created a dataset. Seemed to work.

Try adding the DBMS option:

 

proc import datafile= "/folders/myfolders/m2_pizza.xlsx" dbms = xlsx;
run;
