Hello all,

I know this has been covered here in the past but the solutions offered are not working for me so I will broach the topic again. ()

I'm trying to export label names to an excel file and I can't get the names to export, I keep getting the variable name. It's quite frustrating. Here is the code:

proc export data = Ser_ref

outfile='C:\Documents and Settings\Desktop\sf.xls'

label dbms=excel replace;

sheet='2014';

run;

I appreciate any help, thanks in advance!

Hi:

  If the posted solutions are not working, then it's best to work with Tech Support. They can collect all the information they need, like your version of SAS, bitness (32/64) of SAS and Office, whether you have SAS/Access for PC Files installed and try to replicate that the posted code doesn't work.

As an alternative, why not use:

ods tagsets.execlxp file="....xls" options=(sheet_name="...");

proc report data=...

run;

ods tagset close;

You can specify labels, filter, zoom and lots of other nice items.
