Hi SASers,

 

I have an Excel 2010 macro file that I want to import into SAS 9.3, 32bit. I want to avoid having to rename the varible name F1 F2 F3...is there a way to import the excel sheet at line 5 is the varible names and at line 6 data starts.  Is there a way to specify datarow or namerow in the following SQL? Proc import did not work to avoid F1  F2  F3...?

 

Varible name starts at line 5

Data Starts at line 6  

 

PROC SQL ;

CONNECT TO EXCEL (PATH="C:\SAS\Programs\EaxceltoSAS\filename.XLSM" );

create table Temp as SELECT * FROM CONNECTION TO EXCEL

(SELECT * FROM [sheet2$]) ;

DISCONNECT FROM EXCEL;

QUIT;

You can try specifying the RANGE to include the titles and the data in a PROC IMPORT
