dear all:
The code is:
data test;
input x $1.;
datalines;
a
b
c
;
run;
%macro test();
ods listing close ;
ods results off;
filename fbout "D:\test.xlsx";
%let i=0;
%do %while(%eval(&i.)<10);
ods excel (id=fb) file=fbout options(sheet_interval="none" sheet_name="test");
proc print data=test;run;
%let i=%eval(&i.+1);
%end;
ods excel (id=fb) close;
filename fbout clear;
ods listing ;
ods results on;
%mend;
%test();
when the code is running ,I break it for some reason.But when I rerun the code ,logs shows as below:
"
ERROR: At least one file associated with fileref FBOUT is still in use.
ERROR: Error in the FILENAME statement.
"
************some other logs*******
"ERROR: File is in use, D:\test.xlsx.
"
The only way I know to fix the error is close SAS,delete the xlsx-file in windows OS ,restart SAS. Is there any other method to fix it?
Any suggestion is welcom!
Thanks in advance!
Why are you opening and closing the file so many times?
Do you even need to use the FILENAME statement? You can just specify the actual file in the ODS statement.
Why are you working so hard to re-invent a basic DO loop?
ods excel (id=fb) file= "D:\test.xlsx" options(sheet_interval="none" sheet_name="test");
%do i=0 %to 9 ;
proc print data=test;
run;
%end;
ods excel (id=fb) close;
