Add a Header Row After Exporting to Excel

[BEANIE_SIGH]

I am very beginner at sas. I made a table in sas using proc sql. 

Then I exported to excel with this code which I was told should put a title on the table. However, while it printed onto the excel, theres no title at the top. Not sure what else I can do. 

ods excel file="C:\Users\Name\Documents\EPI 612\Lab1Table1Excel.xlsx"

     options (sheet_name="Rates");

     title "Rates for 2025";

     proc print data=final_rates_tab noobs label;

run;

ods excel close;

Check the header of the file.  By default the title is not written to a cell in the spreadsheet, instead it is written to the header.

I think in Excel you can still do Page Setup to see the headers.

With the ODS EXCEL destination, you need to use the EMBEDDED_TITLES= suboption as shown below:

ods excel file="C:\Users\Name\Documents\EPI 612\Lab1Table1Excel.xlsx"
     options (sheet_name="Rates" embedded_titles='yes');

The documentation shows the other suboptions that are useful:
