Hi Experts,

 

I am trying to export multiple datasets into two different sheets in same excel file. But I am getting an error that export unsuccesful.

Below is my code.

 


PROC EXPORT DATA= ab
OUTFILE=
"/&Main/desktop/file/ab.xlsx"
DBMS=XLSX REPLACE;
Sheet1='ab';
RUN;

 


PROC EXPORT DATA= ab1
OUTFILE=
"/&Main/desktop/file/ab1.xlsx."
DBMS=XLSX REPLACE;
Sheet1='ab1';
RUN;

 

Thanks,

Sanjay

I can't see any error in the code you posted. Tried to export sashelp.cars and sashelp.class using proc export twice, no problem, both sheets are created as expected. Maybe an issue caused by the sas version you are using, will need to see the log,

You may want to think about what REPLACE means.

In proc export that means it REPLACES the existing file. So you have told the code to get rid of the first file.

The option name is "sheet" not "sheet1".
