I have a Proc Freq that produces a column of 3 numbers (Column name 'N', row 1 name is 'All', row 2 name is 'Female', row 3 name is 'Male'. Column N contains headcounts. The dataset name is B1A.
I want to write these three numbers to an external excel file called 'Final_Table_Test.xlsx; tab name is .Table'.
The Excel file is: filename DDE "excel|C:\...\2020-2021 TABLE\[FINAL_Table_TEST.xlsx]Table!R6C3:R8C3".
At one time (years ago), I I wrote something like this that actually did this.
DATA _NULL_;
set SANDBOX.B1A;
INFILE 'B1A';
input N;
FILE FINAL_Table_TEST;
PUT CELL1 CELL2 CELL3;
RUN;
However, no manipulation I have tried works. I get the following error:
ERROR: Physical file does not exist, C:\WINDOWS\system32\B1A.
ERROR: Insufficient authorization to access C:\WINDOWS\system32\FINAL_TABLE_TEST.
Any ides?
proc summary data=sashelp.heart ;
class sex;
output out=have ;
run;
data _null_;
set have;
if missing(sex) then call symputx('all',_freq_);
else call symputx(sex,_freq_);
run;
libname x excel 'c:\temp\FINAL_Table_TEST.xlsx' scan_text=no getnames=no;
proc sql;
update x.'sheet1$'n
set f2="&all"
